The commit 4d38328eb4 ("tracing: Fix synth event printk format for str
fields") replaced "%.*s" with "%s" but missed removing the number size of
the dynamic and static strings. The commit e1a453a57b ("tracing: Do not
add length to print format in synthetic events") fixed the dynamic part
but did not fix the static part. That is, with the commands:
# echo 's:wake_lat char[] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs if !(common_flags & 0x18)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wake_lat,next_comm,$delta)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
That caused the output of:
<idle>-0 [001] d..5. 193.428167: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)sshd-sessiondelta=155
sshd-session-879 [001] d..5. 193.811080: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u34:5delta=58
<idle>-0 [002] d..5. 193.811198: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)bashdelta=91
The commit e1a453a57b fixed the part where the synthetic event had
"char[] wakee". But if one were to replace that with a static size string:
# echo 's:wake_lat char[16] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
Where "wakee" is defined as "char[16]" and not "char[]" making it a static
size, the code triggered the "(efaul)" again.
Remove the added STR_VAR_LEN_MAX size as the string is still going to be
nul terminated.

The trace file will pause tracing if the tracing instance has the
"pause-on-trace" option is set. This happens when the file is opened, and
it is unpaused when the file is closed. When this was first added, there
was only one user that paused tracing. On open, the check to pause was:
if (!iter->snapshot && (tr->trace_flags & TRACE_ITER(PAUSE_ON_TRACE)))
Where if it is not the snapshot tracer and the "pause-on-trace" option is
set, then it increments a "stop_count" of the trace instance.
On close, the check is:
if (!iter->snapshot && tr->stop_count)
That is, if it is not the snapshot buffer and it was stopped, it will
re-enable tracing.
Now there's more places that stop tracing. This means, if something else
stops tracing the tr->stop_count will be non-zero, and that means if the
trace file is closed, it will decrement the stop_count even though it
never incremented it. This causes a warning because when the user that
stopped tracing enables it again, the stop_count goes below zero.
Instead of relying on the stop_count being set to know if the close of
the trace file should enable tracing again, add a new flag to the trace
iterator. The trace iterator is unique per open of the trace file, and if
the open stops tracing set the trace iterator PAUSE flag. On close, if the
PAUSE flag is set, then re-enable it again.

* Move jiffies converters out of kernel/sysctl.c
Moved the jiffies converters into kernel/time/jiffies.c and replaced
the pipe-max-size proc_handler converter with a macro based version.
This is all part of the effort to relocate non-sysctl logic out of
kernel/sysctl.c into more relevant subsystems. No functional changes.
* Generalize proc handler converter creation
Removed duplicated sysctl converter logic by consolidating it in
macros. These are used inside sysctl core as well as in pipe.c and
jiffies.c. Converter kernel and user space pointer args are now
automatically const qualified for the convenience of the caller. No
functional changes.
* Miscellaneous
Fixed kernel-doc format warnings, removed unnecessary __user
qualifiers, and moved the nmi_watchdog sysctl into .rodata.
* Testing
This series was run through sysctl selftests/kunit test suite in
x86_64. It went into linux-next after rc2, giving it a good 4/5 weeks
of testing.

- Merge branch shared with kprobes on extending trace options
The trace options were defined by a 32 bit variable. This limits the
tracing instances to have a total of 32 different options. As that limit
has been hit, and more options are being added, increase the option mask
to a 64 bit number, doubling the number of options available.
As this is required for the kprobe topic branches as well as the tracing
topic branch, a separate branch was created and merged into both.
- Make trace_user_fault_read() available for the rest of tracing
The function trace_user_fault_read() is used by trace_marker file read to
allow reading user space to be done fast and without locking or
allocations. Make this available so that the system call trace events can
use it too.
- Have system call trace events read user space values
Now that the system call trace events callbacks are called in a faultable
context, take advantage of this and read the user space buffers for
various system calls. For example, show the path name of the openat system
call instead of just showing the pointer to that path name in user space.
Also show the contents of the buffer of the write system call. Several
system call trace events are updated to make tracing into a light weight
strace tool for all applications in the system.
- Update perf system call tracing to do the same
- And a config and syscall_user_buf_size file to control the size of the buffer
Limit the amount of data that can be read from user space. The default
size is 63 bytes but that can be expanded to 165 bytes.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to print system calls normally
The persistent ring buffer prints trace events by their type and ignores
the print_fmt. This is because the print_fmt may change from kernel to
kernel. As the system call output is fixed by the system call ABI itself,
there's no reason to limit that. This makes reading the system call events
in the persistent ring buffer much nicer and easier to understand.
- Add options to show text offset to function profiler
The function profiler that counts the number of times a function is hit
currently lists all functions by its name and offset. But this becomes
ambiguous when there are several functions with the same name. Add a
tracing option that changes the output to be that of _text+offset
instead. Now a user space tool can use this information to map the
_text+offset to the unique function it is counting.
- Report bad dynamic event command
If a bad command is passed to the dynamic_events file, report it properly
in the error log.
- Clean up tracer options
Clean up the tracer option code a bit, by removing some useless code and
also using switch statements instead of a series of if statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be enabled
in multiple trace instances, their options are still global. The API is
per instance, thus changing one affects other instances. This isn't even
consistent, as the option take affect differently depending on when an
tracer started in an instance. Make the options for instances only affect
the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at every
sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by instead
using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different types
of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But by adding
a single field to one structure, the other structure could be absorbed
into the first structure making he code easier to understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then removes
them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is because each
removal calls the slow tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that can take
hundreds of milliseconds to complete. Instead, create a helper thread that
will do the clean up. When a trigger is removed, it will create the
kthread if it isn't already created, and then add the trigger to a llist.
The kthread will take the items off the llist, call
tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(), and then remove the items it took
off. It will then check if there's more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less than a
second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced by the
function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function tracing.
But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced. Namely, the event
tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the tracing code to be
traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is enabled, it does add
noise to general function tracing, especially if events are enabled as
well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis in the
field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the persistent
ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using it. This slows
down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the persistent ring buffer,
the old data must be freed and the addresses no longer match and old
events can't be in the buffer with new events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent ring
buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can begin
immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash analysis
tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is finished being
read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer is
enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry event can
not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one of
its members and it will return the offset of that member. This allows the
ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out with as
well.

and also using switch statements instead of a series of if
statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be
enabled in multiple trace instances, their options are still global.
The API is per instance, thus changing one affects other instances.
This isn't even consistent, as the option take affect differently
depending on when an tracer started in an instance. Make the options
for instances only affect the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at
every sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by
instead using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different
types of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But
by adding a single field to one structure, the other structure could
be absorbed into the first structure making he code easier to
understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then
removes them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is
because each removal calls tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that
can take hundreds of milliseconds to complete.
Instead, create a helper thread that will do the clean up. When a
trigger is removed, it will create the kthread if it isn't already
created, and then add the trigger to a llist. The kthread will take
the items off the llist, call tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(),
and then remove the items it took off. It will then check if there's
more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less
than a second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced
by the function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function
tracing. But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced.
Namely, the event tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the
tracing code to be traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is
enabled, it does add noise to general function tracing, especially if
events are enabled as well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis
in the field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the
persistent ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using
it. This slows down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the
persistent ring buffer, the old data must be freed and the addresses
no longer match and old events can't be in the buffer with new
events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent
ring buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can
begin immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash
analysis tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is
finished being read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same
time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer
is enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry
event can not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one
of its members and it will return the offset of that member. This
allows the ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out
with as well

- Move libvfio selftest artifacts in preparation of more tightly
coupled integration with KVM selftests. (David Matlack)
- Fix comment typo in mtty driver. (Chu Guangqing)
- Support for new hardware revision in the hisi_acc vfio-pci variant
driver where the migration registers can now be accessed via the PF.
When enabled for this support, the full BAR can be exposed to the
user. (Longfang Liu)
- Fix vfio cdev support for VF token passing, using the correct size
for the kernel structure, thereby actually allowing userspace to
provide a non-zero UUID token. Also set the match token callback for
the hisi_acc, fixing VF token support for this this vfio-pci variant
driver. (Raghavendra Rao Ananta)
- Introduce internal callbacks on vfio devices to simplify and
consolidate duplicate code for generating VFIO_DEVICE_GET_REGION_INFO
data, removing various ioctl intercepts with a more structured
solution. (Jason Gunthorpe)
- Introduce dma-buf support for vfio-pci devices, allowing MMIO regions
to be exposed through dma-buf objects with lifecycle managed through
move operations. This enables low-level interactions such as a
vfio-pci based SPDK drivers interacting directly with dma-buf capable
RDMA devices to enable peer-to-peer operations. IOMMUFD is also now
able to build upon this support to fill a long standing feature gap
versus the legacy vfio type1 IOMMU backend with an implementation of
P2P support for VM use cases that better manages the lifecycle of the
P2P mapping. (Leon Romanovsky, Jason Gunthorpe, Vivek Kasireddy)
- Convert eventfd triggering for error and request signals to use RCU
mechanisms in order to avoid a 3-way lockdep reported deadlock issue.
(Alex Williamson)
- Fix a 32-bit overflow introduced via dma-buf support manifesting with
large DMA buffers. (Alex Mastro)
- Convert nvgrace-gpu vfio-pci variant driver to insert mappings on
fault rather than at mmap time. This conversion serves both to make
use of huge PFNMAPs but also to both avoid corrected RAS events
during reset by now being subject to vfio-pci-core's use of
unmap_mapping_range(), and to enable a device readiness test after
reset. (Ankit Agrawal)
- Refactoring of vfio selftests to support multi-device tests and split
code to provide better separation between IOMMU and device objects.
This work also enables a new test suite addition to measure parallel
device initialization latency. (David Matlack)

"There was a rather late merge of a new color pipeline feature, that
some userspace projects are blocked on, and has seen a lot of work in
amdgpu. This should have seen some time in -next. There is additional

I'll pass it on in another pull request and you can decide if you want
to take it.
Highlights:
- Arm Ethos NPU accelerator driver

Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.
Driver API
----------
- Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.
- Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics,
as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features
for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.
- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
and performs RSS.
- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default
or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.
- Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.

for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.

Device drivers
--------------
- Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Add support for 'syn'.
Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
syntax tree of Rust source code.
Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io), and
it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount of code
is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for these
crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big, e.g. +7k
-3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided scripts.
They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
- Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for doctests.
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public items
and use names such as 'foo'.
Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code as
possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is important
for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust does not
support yet but we are stricter).
'kernel' crate:
- Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension trait
and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core' import.
This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
- Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
(the 'core' one), so now we can write:
c"hi"
instead of:
c_str!("hi")
- Add 'num' module for numerical features.
It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
integer types.
It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
value that requires only the 'N' less significant bits of the wrapped
type to be encoded:
// An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
Values can be constructed from simple non-constant expressions or,
for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations (with
both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a compatible
backing type), casts to change the backing type, extending/shrinking
and infallible/fallible conversions from/to primitives as applicable.
- 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where appropriate.
The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed to 'CursorMut'.
kallsyms:
- Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
'pin-init' crate:
- A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
him this cycle).
Documentation:
- Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version in
Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the first
one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add entry for the new 'num' module.
- Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to contribute
for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in practice.
And a few other cleanups and improvements.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Allow creaing nbcon console drivers with an unsafe write_atomic()
callback that can only be called by the final nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().
Otherwise, the driver would rely on the kthread.
It is going to be used as the-best-effort approach for an
experimental nbcon netconsole driver, see
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251121-nbcon-v1-2-503d17b2b4af@debian.org
Note that a safe .write_atomic() callback is supposed to work in NMI
context. But some networking drivers are not safe even in IRQ
context:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/oc46gdpmmlly5o44obvmoatfqo5bhpgv7pabpvb6sjuqioymcg@gjsma3ghoz35
In an ideal world, all networking drivers would be fixed first and
the atomic flush would be blocked only in NMI context. But it brings
the question how reliable networking drivers are when the system is
in a bad state. They might block flushing more reliable serial
consoles which are more suitable for serious debugging anyway.
- Allow to use the last 4 bytes of the printk ring buffer.
- Prevent queuing IRQ work and block printk kthreads when consoles are
suspended. Otherwise, they create non-necessary churn or even block
the suspend.
- Release console_lock() between each record in the kthread used for
legacy consoles on RT. It might significantly speed up the boot.
- Release nbcon context between each record in the atomic flush. It
prevents stalls of the related printk kthread after it has lost the
ownership in the middle of a record
- Add support for NBCON consoles into KDB
- Add %ptsP modifier for printing struct timespec64 and use it where
possible
- Misc code clean up

SRCU
----
_ Properly handle SRCU readers within IRQ disabled sections in tiny SRCU
- Preparation to reimplement RCU Tasks Trace on top of SRCU fast:
- Introduce API to expedite a grace period and test it through
rcutorture.
- Split srcu-fast in two flavours: SRCU-fast and SRCU-fast-updown.
Both are still targeted toward faster readers (without full
barriers on LOCK and UNLOCK) at the expense of heavier write side
(using full RCU grace period ordering instead of simply full
ordering) as compared to "traditional" non-fast SRCU. But those
srcu-fast flavours are going to be optimized in two different
ways:
- SRCU-fast will become the reimplementation basis for
RCU-TASK-TRACE for consolidation. Since RCU-TASK-TRACE must
be NMI safe, SRCU-fast must be as well.
- SRCU-fast-updown will be needed for uretprobes code in order
to get rid of the read-side memory barriers while still
allowing entering the reader at task level while exiting it
in a timer handler. It is considered semaphore-like in that
it can have different owners between LOCK and UNLOCK.
However it is not NMI-safe.
The actual optimizations are work in progress for the next cycle.
Only the new interfaces are added for now, along with related
torture and scalability test code.
- Create/document/debug/torture new proper initializers for RCU fast:
DEFINE_SRCU_FAST() and init_srcu_struct_fast()
This allows for using right away the proper ordering on the write
side (either full ordering or full RCU grace period ordering) without
waiting for the read side to tell which to use. Also this optimizes
the read side altogether with moving flavour debug checks under debug
config and with removing a costly RmW operation on their first call.
- Make some diagnostic functions tracing safe.
REFSCALE
-------
Add performance testing for common context synchronizations
(Preemption, IRQ, Softirq) and per-cpu increments. Those are
relevant comparisons against SRCU-fast read side APIs, especially
as they are planned to synchronize further tracing fast-path code.
MISCELLANOUS
------
- In order to prepare the layout for nohz_full work deferral to
user exit, the context tracking state must shrink the counter
of transitions to/from RCU not watching. The only possible hazard
is to trigger wrap-around more easily, delaying a bit grace periods
when that happens. This should be a rare event though. Yet add
debugging and torture code to test that assumption.
- Fix memory leak on locktorture module
- Annotate accesses in rculist_nulls.h to prevent from KCSAN warnings.
On recent discussions, we also concluded that all those WRITE_ONCE()
and READ_ONCE() on list APIs deserve appropriate comments. Something
to be expected for the next cycle.
- Provide a script to apply several configs to several commits with torture.
- Allow torture to reuse a build directory in order to save needless
rebuild time.
- Various cleanups.

through the list of recorded inodes looking for the parent and then
we repeat the search looking for a matching child entry. This pull
request consolidates both searches into one pass through the recorded
inodes, resuling in approximately a 50% reduction in audit overhead.
See the commit description for the testing details.
- Combine kmalloc()/memset() into kzalloc() in audit_krule_to_data()
- Comment fixes
* tag 'audit-pr-20251201' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit:
audit: merge loops in __audit_inode_child()
audit: Use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc()/memset() in audit_krule_to_data()
audit: fix comment misindentation in audit.h
Instead of manually annotating each __ex_table entry, just make the
section mergeable and store the entry size in the ELF section header.
Either way works for objtool create_fake_symbols(), this way produces
cleaner code generation.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"There are quite a few interesting things here, including new hardware
support, new features, some bug fixes and documentation updates. In
addition, there are a usual bunch of minor fixes and cleanups all
over.
In the new hardware support category, there are intel_pstate and
intel_rapl driver updates to support new processors, Panther Lake,
Wildcat Lake, Noval Lake, and Diamond Rapids in the OOB mode, OPP and
bandwidth allocation support in the tegra186 cpufreq driver, and
JH7110S SOC support in dt-platdev cpufreq.
The new features are the PM QoS CPU latency limit for suspend-to-idle,
the netlink support for the energy model management, support for
terminating system suspend via a wakeup event during the sync of file
systems, configurable number of hibernation compression threads, the
runtime PM auto-cleanup macros, and the "poweroff" PM event that is
expected to be used during system shutdown.
Bugs are mostly fixed in cpuidle governors, but there are also fixes
elsewhere, like in the amd-pstate cpufreq driver.
Documentation updates include, but are not limited to, a new doc on
debugging shutdown hangs, cross-referencing fixes and cleanups in the
intel_pstate documentation, and updates of comments in the core
hibernation code.
Specifics:
- Introduce and document a QoS limit on CPU exit latency during
wakeup from suspend-to-idle (Ulf Hansson)

The allocation of the per CPU buffer descriptor, the buffer page
descriptors and the buffer page data itself can be pretty ugly:
kzalloc_node(ALIGN(sizeof(struct buffer_page), cache_line_size()),
GFP_KERNEL, cpu_to_node(cpu));
And the data pages:
page = alloc_pages_node(cpu_to_node(cpu),
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL | __GFP_COMP | __GFP_ZERO, order);
if (!page)
return NULL;
bpage->page = page_address(page);
rb_init_page(bpage->page);
Add helper functions to make the code easier to read.
This does make all allocations of the data page (bpage->page) allocated
with the __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL flag (and not just the bulk allocator). Which
is actually better, as allocating the data page for the ring buffer tracing
should try hard but not trigger the OOM killer.

- Rework of the Per Processor Interrupt (PPI) management on ARM[64].
PPI support was built under the assumption that the systems are
homogenous so that the same CPU local device types are connected to
them. That's unfortunately wishful thinking and created horrible
workarounds.
This rework provides affinity management for PPIs so that they can be
individually configured in the firmware tables and mops up the related
drivers all over the place.
- Prevent CPUSET/isolation changes to arbitrarily affine interrupt
threads to random CPUs, which ignores user or driver settings.
- Plug a harmless race in the interrupt affinity proc interface, which
allows to see a half updated mask
- Adjust the priority of secondary interrupt threads on RT, so that the
combination of primary and secondary thread emulates the hardware
interrupt plus thread scenario. Having them at the same priority can
cause starvation issues in some drivers.

Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the interrupt core and treewide cleanups:
- Rework of the Per Processor Interrupt (PPI) management on ARM[64]
PPI support was built under the assumption that the systems are
homogenous so that the same CPU local device types are connected to
them. That's unfortunately wishful thinking and created horrible
workarounds.
This rework provides affinity management for PPIs so that they can
be individually configured in the firmware tables and mops up the
related drivers all over the place.
- Prevent CPUSET/isolation changes to arbitrarily affine interrupt
threads to random CPUs, which ignores user or driver settings.
- Plug a harmless race in the interrupt affinity proc interface,
which allows to see a half updated mask
- Adjust the priority of secondary interrupt threads on RT, so that
the combination of primary and secondary thread emulates the
hardware interrupt plus thread scenario. Having them at the same
priority can cause starvation issues in some drivers"

The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which are
caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to invoke
the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less each
context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues which
sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context switch
and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management. It also
requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space, which is
executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in sporadic
uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the generic
entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into the
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in the
context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes into the
fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work is only
required when a process creates more threads than the cpuset it is
allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after that. An artificial
thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did not degrade, it actually
improved significantly.
The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock held
time and therefore contention goes down significantly.

- Implement the missing u64 user access function on ARM when
CONFIG_CPU_SPECTRE=n. This makes it possible to access a 64bit value in
generic code with [unsafe_]get_user(). All other architectures and ARM
variants provide the relevant accessors already.
- Ensure that ASM GOTO jump label usage in the user mode access helpers
always goes through a local C scope label indirection inside the
helpers. This is required because compilers are not supporting that a
ASM GOTO target leaves a auto cleanup scope. GCC silently fails to emit
the cleanup invocation and CLANG fails the build.
This provides generic wrapper macros and the conversion of affected
architecture code to use them.
- Scoped user mode access with auto cleanup
Access to user mode memory can be required in hot code paths, but if it
has to be done with user controlled pointers, the access is shielded
with a speculation barrier, so that the CPU cannot speculate around the
address range check. Those speculation barriers impact performance quite
significantly. This can be avoided by "masking" the provided pointer so
it is guaranteed to be in the valid user memory access range and
otherwise to point to a guaranteed unpopulated address space. This has
to be done without branches so it creates an address dependency for the
access, which the CPU cannot speculate ahead.
This results in repeating and error prone programming patterns:
if (can_do_masked_user_access())
from = masked_user_read_access_begin((from));
else if (!user_read_access_begin(from, sizeof(*from)))
return -EFAULT;
unsafe_get_user(val, from, Efault);
user_read_access_end();
return 0;
Efault:
user_read_access_end();
return -EFAULT;
which can be replaced with scopes and automatic cleanup:
scoped_user_read_access(from, Efault)
unsafe_get_user(val, from, Efault);
return 0;
Efault:
return -EFAULT;
- Convert code which implements the above pattern over to
scope_user.*.access(). This also corrects a couple of imbalanced
masked_*_begin() instances which are harmless on most architectures, but
prevent PowerPC from implementing the masking optimization.
- Add a missing speculation barrier in copy_from_user_iter()

Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build
script to generate livepatch modules using a
source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree
kpatch project which began in 2012 and has been used for
many years to generate livepatch modules for production kernels.
However, this is a complete rewrite which incorporates
hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
which injects #line directives into the source .patch to preserve
the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)
- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre,
which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation
specials such as alternatives:

Pull fd prepare updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the FD_ADD() and FD_PREPARE() primitive. They simplify the
common pattern of get_unused_fd_flags() + create file + fd_install()
that is used extensively throughout the kernel and currently requires
cumbersome cleanup paths.
FD_ADD() - For simple cases where a file is installed immediately:
fd = FD_ADD(O_CLOEXEC, vfio_device_open_file(device));
if (fd < 0)
vfio_device_put_registration(device);
return fd;
FD_PREPARE() - For cases requiring access to the fd or file, or
additional work before publishing:
FD_PREPARE(fdf, O_CLOEXEC, sync_file->file);
if (fdf.err) {
fput(sync_file->file);
return fdf.err;
}
data.fence = fd_prepare_fd(fdf);
if (copy_to_user((void __user *)arg, &data, sizeof(data)))
return -EFAULT;
return fd_publish(fdf);
The primitives are centered around struct fd_prepare. FD_PREPARE()
encapsulates all allocation and cleanup logic and must be followed by
a call to fd_publish() which associates the fd with the file and
installs it into the caller's fdtable. If fd_publish() isn't called,
both are deallocated automatically. FD_ADD() is a shorthand that does
fd_publish() immediately and never exposes the struct to the caller.
I've implemented this in a way that it's compatible with the cleanup
infrastructure while also being usable separately. IOW, it's centered
around struct fd_prepare which is aliased to class_fd_prepare_t and so
we can make use of all the basica guard infrastructure"

Merge tag 'kernel-6.19-rc1.cred' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull cred guard updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial credential infrastructure improvements
adding guard-based credential management that simplifies code and
eliminates manual reference counting in many subsystems.
Features:
- Kernel Credential Guards
Add with_kernel_creds() and scoped_with_kernel_creds() guards that
allow using the kernel credentials without allocating and copying
them. This was requested by Linus after seeing repeated
prepare_kernel_creds() calls that duplicate the kernel credentials
only to drop them again later.
The new guards completely avoid the allocation and never expose the
temporary variable to hold the kernel credentials anywhere in
callers.
- Generic Credential Guards
Add scoped_with_creds() guards for the common override_creds() and
revert_creds() pattern. This builds on earlier work that made
override_creds()/revert_creds() completely reference count free.
- Prepare Credential Guards
Add prepare credential guards for the more complex pattern of
preparing a new set of credentials and overriding the current
credentials with them:
- prepare_creds()
- modify new creds
- override_creds()
- revert_creds()
- put_cred()
Cleanups:
- Make init_cred static since it should not be directly accessed
- Add kernel_cred() helper to properly access the kernel credentials
- Fix scoped_class() macro that was introduced two cycles ago
- coredump: split out do_coredump() from vfs_coredump() for cleaner
credential handling
- coredump: move revert_cred() before coredump_cleanup()
- coredump: mark struct mm_struct as const
- coredump: pass struct linux_binfmt as const
- sev-dev: use guard for path"

When loading the ebpf scheduler, the tasks in the scx_tasks list will

Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new
system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups.
The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support.
Features:
- listns() system call
Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate
through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic
interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing
longstanding limitations:
Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate
namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across
all processes, which is:
- Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes
- Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running
process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or
parent references
- Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes
- No ordering or ownership information
- No filtering per namespace type
The listns() system call solves these problems:
ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids,
size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags);
struct ns_id_req {
__u32 size;
__u32 spare;
__u64 ns_id;
struct /* listns */ {
__u32 ns_type;
__u32 spare2;
__u64 user_ns_id;
};
};
Features include:
- Pagination support for large namespace sets
- Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.)
- Filtering by owning user namespace
- Permission checks respecting namespace isolation
- Active Reference Counting
Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace
visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following
cases:
- The namespace is in use by a task
- The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file
descriptor or bind-mount)
- The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child
namespaces
The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still
done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility
to namespace file handles and listns().
This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for
internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by
file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should
not be accessible via (1)-(3).
- Unified Namespace Tree
Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with:
- Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces
- Lookup based solely on inode number
- Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace
- Simplified rbtree comparison helpers
Cleanups
- Header Reorganization:
- Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h)
- Decouple nstree from ns_common header
- Move nstree types into separate header
- Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions
- Use guards for ns_tree_lock
- Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization
- Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid
pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go
away
- Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces
- Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces
- pid: rely on common reference count behavior
- Miscellaneous Cleanups
- Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
- Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const
- Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace
- Simplify owner list iteration in nstree
- nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- nsfs: use inode_just_drop()
- pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls
- libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags
- cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set
- nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces()
Fixes:
- setns(pidfd, ...) race condition
Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target
task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the
namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If
setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active
reference count from zero without taking the required reference on
the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented.
The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller
succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should
succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped.
- Return EFAULT on put_user() error instead of success
- Make sure references are dropped outside of RCU lock (some
namespaces like mount namespace sleep when putting the last
reference)
- Don't skip active reference count initialization for network
namespace
- Add asserts for active refcount underflow
- Add asserts for initial namespace reference counts (both passive
and active)
- ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions
- Fix kernel-doc comments for internal nstree functions
- Selftests
- 15 active reference count tests
- 9 listns() functionality tests
- 7 listns() permission tests
- 12 inactive namespace resurrection tests
- 3 threaded active reference count tests
- commit_creds() active reference tests
- Pagination and stress tests
- EFAULT handling test
- nsid tests fixes"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Cheaper MAY_EXEC handling for path lookup. This elides MAY_WRITE
permission checks during path lookup and adds the
IOP_FASTPERM_MAY_EXEC flag so filesystems like btrfs can avoid
expensive permission work.
- Hide dentry_cache behind runtime const machinery.
- Add German Maglione as virtiofs co-maintainer.
Cleanups:
- Tidy up and inline step_into() and walk_component() for improved
code generation.
- Re-enable IOCB_NOWAIT writes to files. This refactors file
timestamp update logic, fixing a layering bypass in btrfs when
updating timestamps on device files and improving FMODE_NOCMTIME
handling in VFS now that nfsd started using it.
- Path lookup optimizations extracting slowpaths into dedicated
routines and adding branch prediction hints for mntput_no_expire(),
fd_install(), lookup_slow(), and various other hot paths.
- Enable clang's -fms-extensions flag, requiring a JFS rename to
avoid conflicts.
- Remove spurious exports in fs/file_attr.c.
- Stop duplicating union pipe_index declaration. This depends on the
shared kbuild branch that brings in -fms-extensions support which
is merged into this branch.
- Use MD5 library instead of crypto_shash in ecryptfs.
- Use largest_zero_folio() in iomap_dio_zero().
- Replace simple_strtol/strtoul with kstrtoint/kstrtouint in init and
initrd code.
- Various typo fixes.
Fixes:
- Fix emergency sync for btrfs. Btrfs requires an explicit sync_fs()
call with wait == 1 to commit super blocks. The emergency sync path
never passed this, leaving btrfs data uncommitted during emergency
sync.
- Use local kmap in watch_queue's post_one_notification().

mutex_init() invokes __mutex_init() providing the name of the lock and
a pointer to a the lock class. With LOCKDEP enabled this information is
useful but without LOCKDEP it not used at all. Passing the pointer
information of the lock class might be considered negligible but the
name of the lock is passed as well and the string is stored. This
information is wasting storage.
Split __mutex_init() into a _genereic() variant doing the initialisation
of the lock and a _lockdep() version which does _genereic() plus the
lockdep bits. Restrict the lockdep version to lockdep enabled builds
allowing the compiler to remove the unused parameter.
This results in the following size reduction:

- In order to prepare the layout for nohz_full work deferral to
user exit, the context tracking state must shrink the counter
of transitions to/from RCU not watching. The only possible hazard
is to trigger wrap-around more easily, delaying a bit grace periods
when that happens. This should be a rare event though. Yet add
debugging and torture code to test that assumption.
- Fix memory leak on locktorture module
- Annotate accesses in rculist_nulls.h to prevent from KCSAN warnings.
On recent discussions, we also concluded that all those WRITE_ONCE()
and READ_ONCE() on list APIs deserve appropriate comments. Something
to be expected for the next cycle.
- Provide a script to apply several configs to several commits with torture.
- Allow torture to reuse a build directory in order to save needless
rebuild time.
- Various cleanups.

Updating a BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS or BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS via
bpf_map_update_elem() is very expensive.
In one of our workloads, we're inserting ~1400 maps of type
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY into a BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS. This takes ~21
seconds on a single thread, with an average of ~15ms per call:
Function Name: map_update_elem
Number of calls: 1369
Total time: 21s 182ms 966µs
Maximum: 47ms 937µs
Average: 15ms 473µs
Minimum: 7µs
Profiling shows that nearly all of this time is going to synchronize_rcu(),
via maybe_wait_bpf_programs() in map_update_elem().
The call to synchronize_rcu() is done to ensure that after
bpf_map_update_elem() returns, no BPF programs are still looking at the old
value of the map, per commit 1ae80cf319 ("bpf: wait for running BPF
programs when updating map-in-map").
As discussed on the bpf mailing list, replace synchronize_rcu() with
synchronize_rcu_expedited(). This is 175x faster: it now takes an average
of 88 microseconds per call, for a total of 127 milliseconds in the same
benchmark:
Function Name: map_update_elem
Number of calls: 1439

While previous commits sufficiently address the deadlocks, there are
still scenarios where queueing of waiters in NMIs can exacerbate the
possibility of timeouts.
Consider the case below:
CPU 0
<NMI>
res_spin_lock(A) -> becomes non-head waiter
</NMI>
lock owner in CS or pending waiter spinning
CPU 1
res_spin_lock(A) -> head waiter spinning on owner/pending bits
In such a scenario, the non-head waiter in NMI on CPU 0 will not poll
for deadlocks or timeout since it will simply queue behind previous
waiter (head on CPU 1), and also not enter the trylock fallback since
no rqspinlock queue waiter is active on CPU 0. In such a scenario, the
transaction initiated by the head waiter on CPU 1 will timeout,
signalling the NMI and ending the cyclic dependency, but it will cost
250 ms of time.
Instead, the NMI on CPU 0 could simply check for the presence of an AA
deadlock and only proceed with queueing on success. Add such a check
right before any form of queueing is initiated.
The reason the AA deadlock check is not used in conjunction with
in_nmi() is that a similar case could occur due to a reentrant path
in the owner's critical section, and unconditionally checking for AA
before entering the queueing path avoids expensive timeouts. Non-NMI
reentrancy only happens at controlled points in the slow path (with
specific tracepoints which do not impede the forward progress of a
waiter loop), or in the owner CS, while NMIs can land anywhere.
While this check is only needed for non-head waiter queueing, checking
whether we are head or not is racy without xchg_tail, and after that
point, we are already queued, hence for simplicity we must invoke the
check unconditionally.
Note that a more contrived case could still be constructed by using two
locks, and interrupting the progress of the respective owners by
non-head waiters of the other lock, in an ABBA fashion, which would
still not be covered by the current set of checks and conditions. It
would still lead to a timeout though, and not a deadlock. An ABBA check
cannot happen optimistically before the queueing, since it can be racy,
and needs to be happen continuously during the waiting period, which
would then require an unlinking step for queued NMI/reentrant waiters.
This is beyond the scope of this patch.

The original trylock fallback was inherited from qspinlock, and then
reused for the reentrant NMIs while the slow path is active. However,
under contention, it is very unlikely for the trylock to succeed in
taking the lock. In addition, a trylock also has no fairness guarantees,
and thus is prone to starvation issues under extreme scenarios.
The original qspinlock had no choice in terms of returning an error the
caller; if the node count was breached, it had to fall back to trylock
to attempt to take the lock. In case of rqspinlock, we do have the
option of returning to the user. Thus, simply attempt the trylock once,
and instead of spinning, return an error in case the lock cannot be
taken.
This ends up significantly reducing the time spent in the trylock
fallback, since we no longer wait for the timeout duration trying to
aimlessly acquire the lock when there's a high-probability that under
contention, it won't be available to us anyway.

In addition to deferring to the trylock fallback in NMIs, only do so
when an rqspinlock waiter is queued on the current CPU. This is detected
by noticing a non-zero node index. This allows NMI waiters to join the
waiter queue if it isn't interrupting an existing rqspinlock waiter, and
increase the chances of fairly obtaining the lock, performing deadlock
detection as the head, and not being starved while attempting the
trylock.
The trylock path in particular is unlikely to succeed under contention,
as it relies on the lock word becoming 0, which indicates no contention.
This means that the most likely result for NMIs attempting a trylock is
a timeout under contention if they don't hit an AA or ABBA case.
The core problem being addressed through the fixed commit was removing
the dependency edge between an NMI queue waiter and the queue waiter it
is interrupting. Whenever a circular dependency forms, and with no way
to break it (as non-head waiters don't poll for deadlocks or timeouts),
we would enter into a deadlock. A trylock either breaks such an edge by
probing for deadlocks, and finally terminating the waiting loop using a
timeout.
By excluding queueing on CPUs where the node index is non-zero for NMIs,
this sort of dependency is broken. The CPU enters the trylock path for
those cases, and falls back to deadlock checks and timeouts. However, in
other case where it doesn't interrupt the CPU in the slow path while its
queued on the lock, it can join the queue as a normal waiter, and avoid
trylock associated starvation and subsequent timeouts.
There are a few remaining cases here that matter: the NMI can still
preempt the owner in its critical section, and if it queues as a
non-head waiter, it can end up impeding the progress of the owner. While
this won't deadlock, since the head waiter will eventually signal the
NMI waiter to either stop (due to a timeout), it can still lead to long
timeouts. These gaps will be addressed in subsequent commits.
Note that while the node count detection approach is less conservative
than simply deferring NMIs to trylock, it is going to return errors
where attempts to lock B in NMI happen while waiters for lock A are in a
lower context on the same CPU. However, this only occurs when the lower
context is queued in the slow path, and the NMI attempt can proceed
without failure in all other cases. To continue to prevent AA deadlocks
(or ABBA in a similar NMI interrupting lower context pattern), we'd need
a more fleshed out algorithm to unlink NMI waiters after they queue and
detect such cases. However, all that complexity isn't appealing yet to
reduce the failure rate in the small window inside the slow path.
It is important to note that reentrancy in the slow path can also happen
through trace_contention_{begin,end}, but in those cases, unlike an NMI,
the forward progress of the head waiter (or the predecessor in general)
is not being blocked.

Currently, while we enter the check_timeout call immediately due to the
way the ts.spin is initialized, we still invoke the AA and ABBA checks
in the second invocation, and only initialize the timestamp in the first
one. Since each iteration is at least done with a 1ms delay, this can
add delays in detection of AA deadlocks, up to a ms.
Rework check_timeout() to avoid this. First, call check_deadlock_AA()
while initializing the timestamps for the wait period. This also means
that we only do it once per waiting period, instead of every invocation.
Finally, drop check_deadlock() and call check_deadlock_ABBA() directly.
To save on unnecessary ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() in case of AA deadlock,
sample the time only if it returns 0.

Ritesh reported that timeouts occurred frequently for rqspinlock despite
reentrancy on the same lock on the same CPU in [0]. This patch closes
one of the races leading to this behavior, and reduces the frequency of
timeouts.
We currently have a tiny window between the fast-path cmpxchg and the
grabbing of the lock entry where an NMI could land, attempt the same
lock that was just acquired, and end up timing out. This is not ideal.
Instead, move the lock entry acquisition from the fast path to before
the cmpxchg, and remove the grabbing of the lock entry in the slow path,
assuming it was already taken by the fast path. The TAS fallback is
invoked directly without being preceded by the typical fast path,
therefore we must continue to grab the deadlock detection entry in that
case.
Case on lock leading to missed AA:
cmpxchg lock A
<NMI>
... rqspinlock acquisition of A
... timeout
</NMI>
grab_held_lock_entry(A)
There is a similar case when unlocking the lock. If the NMI lands
between the WRITE_ONCE and smp_store_release, it is possible that we end
up in a situation where the NMI fails to diagnose the AA condition,
leading to a timeout.
Case on unlock leading to missed AA:
WRITE_ONCE(rqh->locks[rqh->cnt - 1], NULL)
<NMI>
... rqspinlock acquisition of A
... timeout
</NMI>
smp_store_release(A->locked, 0)
The patch changes the order on unlock to smp_store_release() succeeded
by WRITE_ONCE() of NULL. This avoids the missed AA detection described
above, but may lead to a false positive if the NMI lands between these
two statements, which is acceptable (and preferred over a timeout).
The original intention of the reverse order on unlock was to prevent the
following possible misdiagnosis of an ABBA scenario:
grab entry A
lock A
grab entry B
lock B
unlock B
smp_store_release(B->locked, 0)
grab entry B
lock B
grab entry A
lock A
! <detect ABBA>
WRITE_ONCE(rqh->locks[rqh->cnt - 1], NULL)
If the store release were is after the WRITE_ONCE, the other CPU would
not observe B in the table of the CPU unlocking the lock B. However,
since the threads are obviously participating in an ABBA deadlock, it
is no longer appealing to use the order above since it may lead to a
250 ms timeout due to missed AA detection.

A use-after-free bug may be triggered by calling bpf_inode_storage_get()
in a BPF LSM program hooked to file_alloc_security. Disable the hook to
prevent this from happening.
The cause of the bug is shown in the trace below. In alloc_file(), a
file struct is first allocated through kmem_cache_alloc(). Then,
file_alloc_security hook is invoked. Since the zero initialization or
assignment of f->f_inode happen after this LSM hook, a BPF program may
get a dangeld inode pointer by walking the file struct.

The trace_marker_raw file in tracefs takes a buffer from user space that
contains an id as well as a raw data string which is usually a binary
structure. The structure used has the following:
struct raw_data_entry {
struct trace_entry ent;
unsigned int id;
char buf[];
};
Since the passed in "cnt" variable is both the size of buf as well as the
size of id, the code to allocate the location on the ring buffer had:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
Which is quite ugly and hard to understand. Instead, add a helper macro
called struct_offset() which then changes the above to a simple and easy
to understand:
size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
This will likely come in handy for other use cases too.

Commit 97523a4edb ("kernel/resource: remove first_lvl / siblings_only
logic") removed an optimization introduced by commit 756398750e
("resource: avoid unnecessary lookups in find_next_iomem_res()"). That
was not called out in the message of the first commit explicitly so it's
not entirely clear whether removing the optimization happened
inadvertently or not.
As the original commit message of the optimization explains there is no
point considering the children of a subtree in find_next_iomem_res() if
the top level range does not match.
Reinstating the optimization results in performance improvements in
systems where /proc/iomem is ~5k lines long. Calling mmap() on /dev/mem
in such platforms takes 700-1500μs without the optimisation and 10-50μs
with the optimisation.
Note that even though commit 97523a4edb removed the 'sibling_only'
parameter from next_resource(), newer kernels have basically reinstated it
under the name 'skip_children'.

Introduce a generic infrastructure for tracking recoverable hardware
errors (HW errors that are visible to the OS but does not cause a panic)
and record them for vmcore consumption. This aids post-mortem crash
analysis tools by preserving a count and timestamp for the last occurrence
of such errors. On the other side, correctable errors, which the OS
typically remains unaware of because the underlying hardware handles them
transparently, are less relevant for crash dump and therefore are NOT
tracked in this infrastructure.
Add centralized logging for sources of recoverable hardware errors based
on the subsystem it has been notified.
hwerror_data is write-only at kernel runtime, and it is meant to be read
from vmcore using tools like crash/drgn. For example, this is how it
looks like when opening the crashdump from drgn.
>>> prog['hwerror_data']
(struct hwerror_info[1]){
{
.count = (int)844,
.timestamp = (time64_t)1752852018,
},
...
This helps fleet operators quickly triage whether a crash may be
influenced by hardware recoverable errors (which executes a uncommon code
path in the kernel), especially when recoverable errors occurred shortly
before a panic, such as the bug fixed by commit ee62ce7a1d ("page_pool:
Track DMA-mapped pages and unmap them when destroying the pool")
This is not intended to replace full hardware diagnostics but provides a
fast way to correlate hardware events with kernel panics quickly.
Rare machine check exceptions—like those indicated by mce_flags.p5 or
mce_flags.winchip—are not accounted for in this method, as they fall
outside the intended usage scope for this feature's user base.

When contiguous ranges of order-0 pages are restored, kho_restore_page()
calls prep_compound_page() with the first page in the range and order as
parameters and then kho_restore_pages() calls split_page() to make sure
all pages in the range are order-0.
However, since split_page() is not intended to split compound pages and
with VM_DEBUG enabled it will trigger a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE().
Update kho_restore_page() so that it will use prep_compound_page() when it
restores a folio and make sure it properly sets page count for both large

When booting with debug_pagealloc=on while having:
CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_ENABLE_DEFAULT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_DEFAULT_OFF=n
the system fails to boot due to page faults during kmemleak scanning.
This occurs because:
With debug_pagealloc is enabled, __free_pages() invokes
debug_pagealloc_unmap_pages(), clearing the _PAGE_PRESENT bit for freed
pages in the kernel page table. KHO scratch areas are allocated from
memblock and noted by kmemleak. But these areas don't remain reserved but
released later to the page allocator using init_cma_reserved_pageblock().
This causes subsequent kmemleak scans access non-PRESENT pages, leading to
fatal page faults.
Mark scratch areas with kmemleak_ignore_phys() after they are allocated
from memblock to exclude them from kmemleak scanning before they are
released to buddy allocator to fix this.

Patch series "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs", v6.
All existing kexec and kdump sysfs entries are moved to a new location,
/sys/kernel/kexec, to keep /sys/kernel/ clean and better organized.
Symlinks are created at the old locations for backward compatibility and
can be removed in the future [01/03].
While doing this cleanup, the old kexec and kdump sysfs entries are
marked as deprecated in the existing ABI documentation [02/03]. This
makes it clear that these older interfaces should no longer be used.
New ABI documentation is added to describe the reorganized interfaces
[03/03], so users and tools can rely on the updated sysfs interfaces
going forward.
This patch (of 3):
Several kexec and kdump sysfs entries are currently placed directly under
/sys/kernel/, which clutters the directory and makes it harder to identify
unrelated entries. To improve organization and readability, these entries
are now moved under a dedicated directory, /sys/kernel/kexec.
The following sysfs moved under new kexec sysfs node
+------------------------------------+------------------+
| Old sysfs name | New sysfs name |
| (under /sys/kernel) | (under /sys/kernel/kexec) |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
| kexec_loaded | loaded |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
| kexec_crash_loaded | crash_loaded |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
| kexec_crash_size | crash_size |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
| crash_elfcorehdr_size | crash_elfcorehdr_size |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
| kexec_crash_cma_ranges | crash_cma_ranges |
+---------------------------+---------------------------+
For backward compatibility, symlinks are created at the old locations so
that existing tools and scripts continue to work. These symlinks can be
removed in the future once users have switched to the new path.
While creating symlinks, entries are added in /sys/kernel/ that point to
their new locations under /sys/kernel/kexec/. If an error occurs while
adding a symlink, it is logged but does not stop initialization of the
remaining kexec sysfs symlinks.
The /sys/kernel/<crash_elfcorehdr_size | kexec/crash_elfcorehdr_size>

CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO, as CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP also enables CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO.

Before commit fa759cd75b ("kho: allocate metadata directly from the
buddy allocator"), the chunks were allocated from the slab allocator using
kzalloc(). Those were rightly freed using kfree().
When the commit switched to using the buddy allocator directly, it missed
updating kho_mem_ser_free() to use free_page() instead of kfree().

Currently file handlers only get the serialized_data field to store their
state. This field has a pointer to the serialized state of the file, and
it becomes a part of LUO file's serialized state.
File handlers can also need some runtime state to track information that
shouldn't make it in the serialized data.
One such example is a vmalloc pointer. While kho_preserve_vmalloc()
preserves the memory backing a vmalloc allocation, it does not store the
original vmap pointer, since that has no use being passed to the next
kernel. The pointer is needed to free the memory in case the file is
unpreserved.
Provide a private field in struct luo_file and pass it to all the
callbacks. The field's can be set by preserve, and must be freed by
unpreserve.

Introducing the userspace interface and internal logic required to manage
the lifecycle of file descriptors within a session. Previously, a session
was merely a container; this change makes it a functional management unit.
The following capabilities are added:
A new set of ioctl commands are added, which operate on the file
descriptor returned by CREATE_SESSION. This allows userspace to:
- LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_PRESERVE_FD: Add a file descriptor to a session
to be preserved across the live update.
- LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD: Retrieve a preserved file in the
new kernel using its unique token.
- LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_FINISH: finish session
The session's .release handler is enhanced to be state-aware. When a
session's file descriptor is closed, it correctly unpreserves the session
based on its current state before freeing all associated file resources.

This patch implements the core mechanism for managing preserved files
throughout the live update lifecycle. It provides the logic to invoke the
file handler callbacks (preserve, unpreserve, freeze, unfreeze, retrieve,
and finish) at the appropriate stages.
During the reboot phase, luo_file_freeze() serializes the final metadata
for each file (handler compatible string, token, and data handle) into a
memory region preserved by KHO. In the new kernel, luo_file_deserialize()
reconstructs the in-memory file list from this data, preparing the session
for retrieval.

Introduce the user-space interface for the Live Update Orchestrator via
ioctl commands, enabling external control over the live update process and
management of preserved resources.
The idea is that there is going to be a single userspace agent driving the
live update, therefore, only a single process can ever hold this device
opened at a time.
The following ioctl commands are introduced:
LIVEUPDATE_IOCTL_CREATE_SESSION
Provides a way for userspace to create a named session for grouping file
descriptors that need to be preserved. It returns a new file descriptor
representing the session.
LIVEUPDATE_IOCTL_RETRIEVE_SESSION
Allows the userspace agent in the new kernel to reclaim a preserved
session by its name, receiving a new file descriptor to manage the
restored resources.

Introduce concept of "Live Update Sessions" within the LUO framework. LUO
sessions provide a mechanism to group and manage `struct file *` instances
(representing file descriptors) that need to be preserved across a
kexec-based live update.
Each session is identified by a unique name and acts as a container for
file objects whose state is critical to a userspace workload, such as a
virtual machine or a high-performance database, aiming to maintain their
functionality across a kernel transition.
This groundwork establishes the framework for preserving file-backed state
across kernel updates, with the actual file data preservation mechanisms
to be implemented in subsequent patches.

Modify the kernel_kexec() to call liveupdate_reboot().
This ensures that the Live Update Orchestrator is notified just before the
kernel executes the kexec jump. The liveupdate_reboot() function triggers
the final freeze event, allowing participating FDs perform last-minute
check or state saving within the blackout window.
If liveupdate_reboot() returns an error (indicating a failure during LUO
finalization), the kexec operation is aborted to prevent proceeding with
an inconsistent state. An error is returned to user.

Integrate the LUO with the KHO framework to enable passing LUO state
across a kexec reboot.
This patch implements the lifecycle integration with KHO:
1. Incoming State: During early boot (`early_initcall`), LUO checks if
KHO is active. If so, it retrieves the "LUO" subtree, verifies the
"luo-v1" compatibility string, and reads the `liveupdate-number` to
track the update count.
2. Outgoing State: During late initialization (`late_initcall`), LUO
allocates a new FDT for the next kernel, populates it with the basic
header (compatible string and incremented update number), and
registers it with KHO (`kho_add_subtree`).
3. Finalization: The `liveupdate_reboot()` notifier is updated to invoke
`kho_finalize()`. This ensures that all memory segments marked for
preservation are properly serialized before the kexec jump.

Patch series "Live Update Orchestrator", v8.
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem
designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot.
This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors
to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO
achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as
memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file
descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or
any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec
reboot.
The other series that use LUO, are VFIO [1], IOMMU [2], and PCI [3]
preservations.
Github repo of this series [4].
The core of LUO is a framework for managing the lifecycle of preserved
resources through a userspace-driven interface. Key features include:
- Session Management
Userspace agent (i.e. luod [5]) creates named sessions, each
represented by a file descriptor (via centralized agent that controls
/dev/liveupdate). The lifecycle of all preserved resources within a
session is tied to this FD, ensuring automatic kernel cleanup if the
controlling userspace agent crashes or exits unexpectedly.
- File Preservation
A handler-based framework allows specific file types (demonstrated
here with memfd) to be preserved. Handlers manage the serialization,
restoration, and lifecycle of their specific file types.
- File-Lifecycle-Bound State
A new mechanism for managing shared global state whose lifecycle is
tied to the preservation of one or more files. This is crucial for
subsystems like IOMMU or HugeTLB, where multiple file descriptors may
depend on a single, shared underlying resource that must be preserved
only once.
- KHO Integration
LUO drives the Kexec Handover framework programmatically to pass its
serialized metadata to the next kernel. The LUO state is finalized and
added to the kexec image just before the reboot is triggered. In the
future this step will also be removed once stateless KHO is
merged [6].
- Userspace Interface
Control is provided via ioctl commands on /dev/liveupdate for creating
and retrieving sessions, as well as on session file descriptors for
managing individual files.
- Testing
The series includes a set of selftests, including userspace API
validation, kexec-based lifecycle tests for various session and file
scenarios, and a new in-kernel test module to validate the FLB logic.
Introduce LUO, a mechanism intended to facilitate kernel updates while
keeping designated devices operational across the transition (e.g., via
kexec). The primary use case is updating hypervisors with minimal
disruption to running virtual machines. For userspace side of hypervisor
update we have copyless migration. LUO is for updating the kernel.
This initial patch lays the groundwork for the LUO subsystem.
Further functionality, including the implementation of state transition
logic, integration with KHO, and hooks for subsystems and file
descriptors, will be added in subsequent patches.
Create a character device at /dev/liveupdate.
A new uAPI header, <uapi/linux/liveupdate.h>, will define the necessary
structures. The magic number for IOCTL is registered in
Documentation/userspace-api/ioctl/ioctl-number.rst.

Currently, Kexec Handover must be explicitly enabled via the kernel
command line parameter `kho=on`.
For workloads that rely on KHO as a foundational requirement (such as the
upcoming Live Update Orchestrator), requiring an explicit boot parameter
adds redundant configuration steps.
Introduce CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_ENABLE_DEFAULT. When selected, KHO
defaults to enabled. This is equivalent to passing kho=on at boot. The
behavior can still be disabled at runtime by passing kho=off.

Currently, kho_preserve_* and kho_unpreserve_* return -EBUSY if KHO is
finalized. This enforces a rigid "freeze" on the KHO memory state.
With the introduction of re-entrant finalization, this restriction is no
longer necessary. Users should be allowed to modify the preservation set
(e.g., adding new pages or freeing old ones) even after an initial
finalization.
The intended workflow for updates is now:
1. Modify state (preserve/unpreserve).
2. Call kho_finalize() again to refresh the serialized metadata.
Remove the kho_out.finalized checks to enable this dynamic behavior.
This also allows to convert kho_unpreserve_* functions to void, as they do
not return any error anymore.

Currently, kho_fill_kimage() checks kho_out.finalized and returns early if
KHO is not yet finalized. This enforces a strict ordering where userspace
must finalize KHO *before* loading the kexec image.
This is restrictive, as standard workflows often involve loading the
target kernel early in the lifecycle and finalizing the state (FDT) only
immediately before the reboot.
Since the KHO FDT resides at a physical address allocated during boot
(kho_init), its location is stable. We can attach this stable address to
the kimage regardless of whether the content has been finalized yet.
Relax the check to only require kho_enable, allowing kexec_file_load to
proceed at any time.

Currently, sub-FDTs were tracked in a list (kho_out.sub_fdts) and the
final FDT is constructed entirely from scratch during kho_finalize().
We can maintain the FDT dynamically:
1. Initialize a valid, empty FDT in kho_init().
2. Use fdt_add_subnode and fdt_setprop in kho_add_subtree to
update the FDT immediately when a subsystem registers.
3. Use fdt_del_node in kho_remove_subtree to remove entries.
This removes the need for the intermediate sub_fdts list and the
reconstruction logic in kho_finalize(). kho_finalize() now only needs to
trigger memory map serialization.

Previously, KHO required a dedicated kho_abort() function to clean up
state before kho_finalize() could be called again. This was necessary to
handle complex unwind paths when using notifiers.
With the shift to direct memory preservation, the explicit abort step is
no longer strictly necessary.
Remove kho_abort() and refactor kho_finalize() to handle re-entry. If
kho_finalize() is called while KHO is already finalized, it will now
automatically clean up the previous memory map and state before generating
a new one. This allows the KHO state to be updated/refreshed simply by
triggering finalize again.
Update debugfs to return -EINVAL if userspace attempts to write 0 to the
finalize attribute, as explicit abort is no longer supported.

Currently, the serialized memory map is tracked via

double tracking is redundant.
Remove preserved_mem_map from kho_out. Instead, maintain the physical
address of the head chunk directly in the preserved-memory-map FDT
property.
Introduce kho_update_memory_map() to manage this property. This function
handles:
1. Retrieving and freeing any existing serialized map (handling the
abort/retry case).
2. Updating the FDT property with the new chunk address.
This establishes the FDT as the single source of truth for the handover

Currently, __kho_finalize() performs memory serialization in the middle of
FDT construction. If FDT construction fails later, the function must
manually clean up the serialized memory via __kho_abort().
Refactor __kho_finalize() to perform kho_mem_serialize() only after the
FDT has been successfully constructed and finished. This reordering has
two benefits:
1. It avoids expensive serialization work if FDT generation fails.
2. It removes the need for cleanup in the FDT error path.
As a result, the internal helper __kho_abort() is no longer needed for
internal error handling. Inline its remaining logic (cleanup of the
preserved memory map) directly into kho_abort() and remove the helper.

There is no need to hide the FDT based on the state. Always expose it
starting from initialization. This aids the transition toward removing
the explicit abort functionality and converting KHO to be fully stateless.

During boot, kho_restore_folio() relies on the memory map having been
successfully deserialized. If deserialization fails or no map is present,
attempting to restore the FDT folio is unsafe.
Update kho_mem_deserialize() to return a boolean indicating success. Use
this return value in kho_memory_init() to disable KHO if deserialization
fails. Also, the incoming FDT folio is never used, there is no reason to
restore it.
Additionally, use get_unaligned() to retrieve the memory map pointer from
the FDT. FDT properties are not guaranteed to be naturally aligned, and
accessing a 64-bit value via a pointer that is only 32-bit aligned can
cause faults.

Currently, the FDT folio is preserved inside __kho_finalize(). If the
user performs multiple finalize/abort cycles, kho_preserve_folio() is
called repeatedly for the same FDT folio.
Since the FDT folio is allocated once during kho_init(), it should be
marked for preservation at the same time. Move the preservation call to
kho_init() to align the preservation state with the object's lifecycle and
simplify the finalize path.
Also, pre-zero the FDT tree so we do not expose random bits to the user
and to the next kernel by using the new kho_alloc_preserve() api.

kho_preserve_folio(). Similarly, cleanup requires separate calls to
unpreserve and free the memory.
Introduce a high-level API to streamline this common pattern:
- kho_alloc_preserve(size): Allocates physically contiguous, zeroed
memory and immediately marks it for preservation.
- kho_unpreserve_free(ptr): Unpreserves and frees the memory
in the current kernel.
- kho_restore_free(ptr): Restores the struct page state of
preserved memory in the new kernel and immediately frees it to the
page allocator.

Patch series "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates", v2.
This patch series refactors the Kexec Handover subsystem to transition
from a rigid, state-locked model to a dynamic, re-entrant architecture.
It also introduces usability improvements.
Motivation
Currently, KHO relies on a strict state machine where memory
preservation is locked upon finalization. If a change is required, the
user must explicitly "abort" to reset the state. Additionally, the kexec
image cannot be loaded until KHO is finalized, and the FDT is rebuilt
from scratch on every finalization.
This series simplifies this workflow to support "load early, finalize
late" scenarios.
Key Changes
State Machine Simplification:
- Removed kho_abort(). kho_finalize() is now re-entrant; calling it a
second time automatically flushes the previous serialized state and
generates a fresh one.
- Removed kho_out.finalized checks from preservation APIs, allowing
drivers to add/remove pages even after an initial finalization.
- Decoupled kexec_file_load from KHO finalization. The KHO FDT physical
address is now stable from boot, allowing the kexec image to be loaded
before the handover metadata is finalized.
FDT Management:
- The FDT is now updated in-place dynamically when subtrees are added or
removed, removing the need for complex reconstruction logic.
- The output FDT is always exposed in debugfs (initialized and zeroed at
boot), improving visibility and debugging capabilities throughout the
system lifecycle.
- Removed the redundant global preserved_mem_map pointer, establishing
the FDT property as the single source of truth.
New Features & API Enhancements:
- High-Level Allocators: Introduced kho_alloc_preserve() and friends to
reduce boilerplate for drivers that need to allocate, preserve, and
eventually restore simple memory buffers.
- Configuration: Added CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_ENABLE_DEFAULT to allow KHO
to be active by default without requiring the kho=on command line
parameter.
Fixes:
- Fixed potential alignment faults when accessing 64-bit FDT properties.
- Fixed the lifecycle of the FDT folio preservation (now preserved once
at init).
This patch (of 13):
The log message in kho_populate() currently states "Will skip init for
some devices". This implies that Kexec Handover always involves skipping
device initialization.
However, KHO is a generic mechanism used to preserve kernel memory across
reboot for various purposes, such as memfd, telemetry, or reserve_mem.
Skipping device initialization is a specific property of live update
drivers using KHO, not a property of the mechanism itself.
Remove the misleading suffix to accurately reflect the generic nature of
KHO discovery.

Make pr_xxx() call to use the %pe format specifier instead of %d. The %pe
specifier prints a symbolic error string (e.g., -ENOMEM, -EINVAL) when
given an error pointer created with ERR_PTR(err).
This change enhances the clarity and diagnostic value of the error message
by showing a descriptive error name rather than a numeric error code.
Note, that some err are still printed by value, as those errors might come
from libfdt and not regular errnos.

KHO allows clients to preserve memory regions at any point before the KHO
state is finalized. The finalization process itself involves KHO
performing its own actions, such as serializing the overall preserved
memory map.
If this finalization process is aborted, the current implementation
destroys KHO's internal memory tracking structures
(`kho_out.ser.track.orders`). This behavior effectively unpreserves all
memory from KHO's perspective, regardless of whether those preservations
were made by clients before the finalization attempt or by KHO itself
during finalization.
This premature unpreservation is incorrect. An abort of the finalization
process should only undo actions taken by KHO as part of that specific
finalization attempt. Individual memory regions preserved by clients
prior to finalization should remain preserved, as their lifecycle is
managed by the clients themselves. These clients might still need to call
kho_unpreserve_folio() or kho_unpreserve_phys() based on their own logic,
even after a KHO finalization attempt is aborted.

The KHO framework uses a notifier chain as the mechanism for clients to
participate in the finalization process. While this works for a single,
central state machine, it is too restrictive for kernel-internal
components like pstore/reserve_mem or IMA. These components need a
simpler, direct way to register their state for preservation (e.g., during
their initcall) without being part of a complex, shutdown-time notifier
sequence. The notifier model forces all participants into a single
finalization flow and makes direct preservation from an arbitrary context
difficult. This patch refactors the client participation model by
removing the notifier chain and introducing a direct API for managing FDT
subtrees.
The core kho_finalize() and kho_abort() state machine remains, but clients
now register their data with KHO beforehand.

Patch series "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users", v9.
This series refactors the KHO framework to better support in-kernel users
like the upcoming LUO. The current design, which relies on a notifier
chain and debugfs for control, is too restrictive for direct programmatic
use.
The core of this rework is the removal of the notifier chain in favor of a
direct registration API. This decouples clients from the shutdown-time
finalization sequence, allowing them to manage their preserved state more
flexibly and at any time.
In support of this new model, this series also:
- Makes the debugfs interface optional.
- Introduces APIs to unpreserve memory and fixes a bug in the abort
path where client state was being incorrectly discarded. Note that
this is an interim step, as a more comprehensive fix is planned as
part of the stateless KHO work [1].
- Moves all KHO code into a new kernel/liveupdate/ directory to
consolidate live update components.
This patch (of 9):
Currently, KHO is controlled via debugfs interface, but once LUO is
introduced, it can control KHO, and the debug interface becomes optional.
Add a separate config CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_DEBUGFS that enables the
debugfs interface, and allows to inspect the tree.
Move all debugfs related code to a new file to keep the .c files clear of
ifdefs.

Eight converter functions are created using two new macros
(SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN_INT_CONV & SYSCTL_KERN_TO_USER_INT_CONV); they are
called from four pre-existing converter functions: do_proc_dointvec_conv
and do_proc_dointvec{,_userhz,_ms}_jiffies_conv. The function names
generated by the macros are differentiated by a string suffix passed as
the first macro argument.
The SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN_INT_CONV macro first executes the u_ptr_op
operation, then checks for overflow, assigns sign (-, +) and finally
writes to the kernel var with WRITE_ONCE; it always returns an -EINVAL
when an overflow is detected. The SYSCTL_KERN_TO_USER_INT_CONV uses
READ_ONCE, casts to unsigned long, then executes the k_ptr_op before
assigning the value to the user space buffer.
The overflow check is always done against MAX_INT after applying
{k,u}_ptr_op. This approach avoids rounding or precision errors that
might occur when using the inverse operations.

Replace the "write" integer parameter with SYSCTL_USER_TO_KERN() and

"write" originates in proc_sysctl.c (proc_sys_{read,write}) and can take
one of two values: "0" or "1" when called from proc_sys_read and
proc_sys_write respectively. When write has a value of zero, data is
"written" to a user space buffer from a kernel variable (usually
ctl_table->data). Whereas when write has a value greater than zero, data
is "written" to an internal kernel variable from a user space buffer.
Remove this ambiguity by introducing macros that clearly indicate the
direction of the "write".
The write mode names in sysctl_writes_mode are left unchanged as these
directly relate to the sysctl_write_strict file in /proc/sys where the
word "write" unambiguously refers to writing to a file.

by later commits. SRCU-fast will lack any sort of srcu_down_read() and
srcu_up_read() APIs, which will enable extremely efficient NMI safety.
For its part, SRCU-fast-updown will not be NMI safe, which will enable
reasonably efficient implementations of srcu_down_read_fast() and
srcu_up_read_fast().
This API fork happens to meet two different future use cases.
* SRCU-fast will become the reimplementation basis for RCU-TASK-TRACE
for consolidation. Since RCU-TASK-TRACE must be NMI safe, SRCU-fast
must be as well.
* SRCU-fast-updown will be needed for uretprobes code in order to get
rid of the read-side memory barriers while still allowing entering the
reader at task level while exiting it in a timer handler.
This commit also adds rcutorture tests for the new APIs. This
(annoyingly) needs to be in the same commit for bisectability. With this
commit, the 0x8 value tests SRCU-fast-updown. However, most SRCU-fast
testing will be via the RCU Tasks Trace wrappers.

tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close for split VMAs
Prior to commit a25e7962db ("PCI/P2PDMA: Refactor the p2pdma mapping
helpers"), P2P segments were mapped using the pci_p2pdma_map_segment()
helper. This helper was responsible for populating sg->dma_address,
marking the bus address, and also setting sg_dma_len(sg).
The refactor[1] removed this helper and moved the mapping logic directly
into the callers. While iommu_dma_map_sg() was correctly updated to set
the length in the new flow, it was missed in dma_direct_map_sg().
Thus, in dma_direct_map_sg(), the PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR case sets the
dma_address and marks the segment, but immediately executes 'continue',
which causes the loop to skip the standard assignment logic at the end:
sg_dma_len(sg) = sg->length;
As a result, when CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH is enabled, the dma_length
field remains uninitialized (zero) for P2P bus address mappings. This
breaks upper-layer drivers (for e.g. RDMA/IB) that rely on sg_dma_len()
to determine the transfer size.
Fix this by explicitly setting the DMA length in the
PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR case before continuing to the next scatterlist
entry.

the coarse-grained ftrace_trace_task() check in graph_entry() is obsolete.
It was only a fallback for uninitialized op->private (now fixed), and its

Currently, the persistent ring buffer instance needs to be read before
using it. This means we have to wait for boot up user space and dump
the persistent ring buffer. However, in that case we can not start
tracing on it from the kernel cmdline.
To solve this limitation, this adds an option which allows to create
a trace instance as a backup of the persistent ring buffer at boot.
If user specifies trace_instance=<BACKUP>=<PERSIST_RB> then the
<BACKUP> instance is made as a copy of the <PERSIST_RB> instance.
For example, the below kernel cmdline records all syscalls, scheduler
and interrupt events on the persistent ring buffer `boot_map` but
before starting the tracing, it makes a `backup` instance from the
`boot_map`. Thus, the `backup` instance has the previous boot events.
'reserve_mem=12M:4M:trace trace_instance=boot_map@trace,syscalls:*,sched:*,irq:* trace_instance=backup=boot_map'
As you can see, this just make a copy of entire reserved area and
make a backup instance on it. So you can release (or shrink) the
backup instance after use it to save the memory usage.

Note: since there is no reason to make a copy of empty buffer, this
backup only accepts a persistent ring buffer as the original instance.
Also, since this backup is based on vmalloc(), it does not support
user-space mmap().

debugging the tracing code. Currently all files in the tracing directory
are set to "notrace" the functions.
Add a new config option FUNCTION_SELF_TRACING that will allow some of the
files in the tracing infrastructure to be traced. It requires a config to
enable because it will add noise to the function tracer if events and
other tracing features are enabled. Tracing functions and events together
is quite common, so not tracing the event code should be the default.

The event trigger data requires a full tracepoint_synchronize_unregister()
call before freeing. That call can take 100s of milliseconds to complete.
In order to allow for bulk freeing of the trigger data, it can not call
the tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() for every individual trigger data
being free.
Create a kthread that gets created the first time a trigger data is freed,
and have it use the lockless llist to get the list of data to free, run
the tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() then free everything in the list.
By freeing hundreds of event_trigger_data elements together, it only
requires two runs of the synchronization function, and not hundreds of
runs. This speeds up the operation by orders of magnitude (milliseconds
instead of several seconds).

There's one exception in trace_events_hist.c for the

function pointers for "named histograms". In this case, allocate the
cmd_ops of the event_trigger_data and set it to the proper init and free

respectively. Have the free function and the init function (on failure)

The struct event_command has a callback function called get_trigger_ops().
This callback returns the "trigger_ops" to use for the trigger. These ops
define the trigger function, how to init the trigger, how to print the
trigger and how to free it.
The only reason there's a callback function to get these ops is because
some triggers have two types of operations. One is an "always on"
operation, and the other is a "count down" operation. If a user passes in
a parameter to say how many times the trigger should execute. For example:
echo stacktrace:5 > events/kmem/kmem_cache_alloc/trigger
It will trigger the stacktrace for the first 5 times the kmem_cache_alloc
event is hit.
Instead of having two different trigger_ops since the only difference
between them is the tigger itself (the print, init and free functions are
all the same), just use a single ops that the event_command points to and
add a function field to the trigger_ops to have a count_func.
When a trigger is added to an event, if there's a count attached to it and
the trigger ops has the count_func field, the data allocated to represent
this trigger will have a new flag set called COUNT.
Then when the trigger executes, it will check if the COUNT data flag is
set, and if so, it will call the ops count_func(). If that returns false,
it returns without executing the trigger.
This removes the need for duplicate event_trigger_ops structures.

When a VMA is split (e.g., by partial munmap or MAP_FIXED), the kernel
calls vm_ops->close on each portion. For trace buffer mappings, this
results in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while
ring_buffer_map() was only called once.
This causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls
because user_mapped is already 0, triggering a WARN_ON.
Trace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring
buffer structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page.
Fix this by adding a may_split callback that returns -EINVAL to prevent
VMA splits entirely.

Now that all pieces are in place, change the implementations of
sched_mm_cid_fork() and sched_mm_cid_exit() to adhere to the new strict
ownership scheme and switch context_switch() over to use the new
mm_cid_schedin() functionality.
The common case is that there is no mode change required, which makes
fork() and exit() just update the user count and the constraints.
In case that a new user would exceed the CID space limit the fork() context
handles the transition to per CPU mode with mm::mm_cid::mutex held. exit()
handles the transition back to per task mode when the user count drops
below the switch back threshold. fork() might also be forced to handle a

CIDs are either owned by tasks or by CPUs. The ownership mode depends on
the number of tasks related to a MM and the number of CPUs on which these
tasks are theoretically allowed to run on. Theoretically because that
number is the superset of CPU affinities of all tasks which only grows and
never shrinks.
Switching to per CPU mode happens when the user count becomes greater than
the maximum number of CIDs, which is calculated by:
opt_cids = min(mm_cid::nr_cpus_allowed, mm_cid::users);
max_cids = min(1.25 * opt_cids, nr_cpu_ids);
The +25% allowance is useful for tight CPU masks in scenarios where only a
few threads are created and destroyed to avoid frequent mode
switches. Though this allowance shrinks, the closer opt_cids becomes to
nr_cpu_ids, which is the (unfortunate) hard ABI limit.
At the point of switching to per CPU mode the new user is not yet visible
in the system, so the task which initiated the fork() runs the fixup
function: mm_cid_fixup_tasks_to_cpu() walks the thread list and either
transfers each tasks owned CID to the CPU the task runs on or drops it into
the CID pool if a task is not on a CPU at that point in time. Tasks which
schedule in before the task walk reaches them do the handover in
mm_cid_schedin(). When mm_cid_fixup_tasks_to_cpus() completes it's
guaranteed that no task related to that MM owns a CID anymore.
Switching back to task mode happens when the user count goes below the
threshold which was recorded on the per CPU mode switch:
pcpu_thrs = min(opt_cids - (opt_cids / 4), nr_cpu_ids / 2);
This threshold is updated when a affinity change increases the number of
allowed CPUs for the MM, which might cause a switch back to per task mode.
If the switch back was initiated by a exiting task, then that task runs the
fixup function. If it was initiated by a affinity change, then it's run
either in the deferred update function in context of a workqueue or by a
task which forks a new one or by a task which exits. Whatever happens
first. mm_cid_fixup_cpus_to_task() walks through the possible CPUs and
either transfers the CPU owned CIDs to a related task which runs on the CPU
or drops it into the pool. Tasks which schedule in on a CPU which the walk
did not cover yet do the handover themselves.
This transition from CPU to per task ownership happens in two phases:
1) mm:mm_cid.transit contains MM_CID_TRANSIT. This is OR'ed on the task
CID and denotes that the CID is only temporarily owned by the
task. When it schedules out the task drops the CID back into the
pool if this bit is set.
2) The initiating context walks the per CPU space and after completion
clears mm:mm_cid.transit. After that point the CIDs are strictly
task owned again.
This two phase transition is required to prevent CID space exhaustion
during the transition as a direct transfer of ownership would fail if
two tasks are scheduled in on the same CPU before the fixup freed per
CPU CIDs.
When mm_cid_fixup_cpus_to_tasks() completes it's guaranteed that no CID
related to that MM is owned by a CPU anymore.

2) The CID space must not exceed the number of possible CPUs in a
system. While most allocators (glibc, tcmalloc, jemalloc) do not
care about that, there seems to be at least some LTTng library
depending on it.
The CID space compaction itself is not a functional correctness
requirement, it is only a useful optimization mechanism to reduce the
memory foot print in unused user space pools.
The optimal CID space is:
min(nr_tasks, nr_cpus_allowed);
Where @nr_tasks is the number of actual user space threads associated to
the mm and @nr_cpus_allowed is the superset of all task affinities. It is
growth only as it would be insane to take a racy snapshot of all task
affinities when the affinity of one task changes just do redo it 2
milliseconds later when the next task changes it's affinity.
That means that as long as the number of tasks is lower or equal than the
number of CPUs allowed, each task owns a CID. If the number of tasks
exceeds the number of CPUs allowed it switches to per CPU mode, where the
CPUs own the CIDs and the tasks borrow them as long as they are scheduled
in.
For transition periods CIDs can go beyond the optimal space as long as they
don't go beyond the number of possible CPUs.
The current upstream implementation adds overhead into task migration to
keep the CID with the task. It also has to do the CID space consolidation
work from a task work in the exit to user space path. As that work is
assigned to a random task related to a MM this can inflict unwanted exit
latencies.
Implement the context switch parts of a strict ownership mechanism to
address this.
This removes most of the work from the task which schedules out. Only
during transitioning from per CPU to per task ownership it is required to
drop the CID when leaving the CPU to prevent CID space exhaustion. Other
than that scheduling out is just a single check and branch.
The task which schedules in has to check whether:
1) The ownership mode changed
2) The CID is within the optimal CID space
In stable situations this results in zero work. The only short disruption
is when ownership mode changes or when the associated CID is not in the
optimal CID space. The latter only happens when tasks exit and therefore
the optimal CID space shrinks.
That mechanism is strictly optimized for the common case where no change
happens. The only case where it actually causes a temporary one time spike
is on mode changes when and only when a lot of tasks related to a MM
schedule exactly at the same time and have eventually to compete on
allocating a CID from the bitmap.
In the sysbench test case which triggered the spinlock contention in the
initial CID code, __schedule() drops significantly in perf top on a 128
Core (256 threads) machine when running sysbench with 255 threads, which
fits into the task mode limit of 256 together with the parent thread:
Upstream rseq/perf branch +CID rework
0.42% 0.37% 0.32% [k] __schedule
Increasing the number of threads to 256, which puts the test process into
per CPU mode looks about the same.

The MM CID management has two fundamental requirements:
1) It has to guarantee that at no given point in time the same CID is
used by concurrent tasks in userspace.
2) The CID space must not exceed the number of possible CPUs in a
system. While most allocators (glibc, tcmalloc, jemalloc) do not care
about that, there seems to be at least librseq depending on it.
The CID space compaction itself is not a functional correctness

work from a task work in the exit to user space path. As that work is
assigned to a random task related to a MM this can inflict unwanted exit
latencies.
This can be done differently by implementing a strict CID ownership
mechanism. Either the CIDs are owned by the tasks or by the CPUs. The
latter provides less locality when tasks are heavily migrating, but there
is no justification to optimize for overcommit scenarios and thereby
penalizing everyone else.
Provide the basic infrastructure to implement this:
- Change the UNSET marker to BIT(31) from ~0U
- Add the ONCPU marker as BIT(30)
- Add the TRANSIT marker as BIT(29)
That allows to check for ownership trivially and provides a simple check for
UNSET as well. The TRANSIT marker is required to prevent CID space
exhaustion when switching from per CPU to per task mode.

Reading mm::mm_users and mm:::mm_cid::nr_cpus_allowed every time to compute
the maximal CID value is just wasteful as that value is only changing on
fork(), exit() and eventually when the affinity changes.
So it can be easily precomputed at those points and provided in mm::mm_cid
for consumption in the hot path.
But there is an issue with using mm::mm_users for accounting because that
does not necessarily reflect the number of user space tasks as other kernel
code can take temporary references on the MM which skew the picture.
Solve that by adding a users counter to struct mm_mm_cid, which is modified
by fork() and exit() and used for precomputing under mm_mm_cid::lock.

Therefore, add the new function parameter "old_t" along with the "new_t",

"BPF_MOD_NOP" is added to make the code more readable. In

FTRACE_OPS_FL_JMP, which indicate that the ftrace_ops should be called
with a "jmp" instead of "call". For now, it is only used by the direct
call case.
When a direct ftrace_ops is marked with FTRACE_OPS_FL_JMP, the last bit of
the ops->direct_call will be set to 1. Therefore, we can tell if we should
use "jmp" for the callback in ftrace_call_replace().

Currently when the length of a symbol is longer than 0x7f characters,
its type shown in /proc/kallsyms can be incorrect.
I found this issue when reading the code, but it can be reproduced by
following steps:
1. Define a function which symbol length is 130 characters:
#define X13(x) x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x##x
static noinline void X13(x123456789)(void)
{
printk("hello world\n");
}
2. The type in vmlinux is 't':
$ nm vmlinux | grep x123456
ffffffff816290f0 t x123456789x123456789x123456789x12[...]
3. Then boot the kernel, the type shown in /proc/kallsyms becomes 'g'
instead of the expected 't':
# cat /proc/kallsyms | grep x123456
ffffffff816290f0 g x123456789x123456789x123456789x12[...]
The root cause is that, after commit 73bbb94466 ("kallsyms: support
"big" kernel symbols"), ULEB128 was used to encode symbol name length.
That is, for "big" kernel symbols of which name length is longer than
0x7f characters, the length info is encoded into 2 bytes.
kallsyms_get_symbol_type() expects to read the first char of the
symbol name which indicates the symbol type. However, due to the
"big" symbol case not being handled, the symbol type read from
/proc/kallsyms may be wrong, so handle it properly.

With commit ("printk: Avoid scheduling irq_work on suspend") the
implementation of printk_get_console_flush_type() was modified to
avoid offloading when irq_work should be blocked during suspend.
Since printk uses the returned flush type to determine what
flushing methods are used, this was thought to be sufficient for
avoiding irq_work usage during the suspend phase.
However, vprintk_emit() implements a hack to support
printk_deferred(). In this hack, the returned flush type is
adjusted to make sure no legacy direct printing occurs when
printk_deferred() was used.
Because of this hack, the legacy offloading flushing method can
still be used, causing irq_work to be queued when it should not
be.
Adjust the vprintk_emit() hack to also consider
@console_irqwork_blocked so that legacy offloading will not be
chosen when irq_work should be blocked.

timers: Fix NULL function pointer race in timer_shutdown_sync()
timekeeping: Fix resource leak in tk_aux_sysfs_init() error paths
tick/sched: Fix bogus condition in report_idle_softirq()
There is a race condition between timer_shutdown_sync() and timer
expiration that can lead to hitting a WARN_ON in expire_timers().
The issue occurs when timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
to NULL while the timer is still running on another CPU. The race
scenario looks like this:
CPU0 CPU1
<SOFTIRQ>
lock_timer_base()
expire_timers()
base->running_timer = timer;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn enter]
mod_timer()
...
timer_shutdown_sync()
lock_timer_base()
// For now, will not detach the timer but only clear its function to NULL
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn exit]
lock_timer_base()
base->running_timer = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
...
// Now timer is pending while its function set to NULL.
// next timer trigger
<SOFTIRQ>
expire_timers()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) // hit
...
lock_timer_base()
// Now timer will detach
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
The problem is that timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
regardless of whether the timer is currently running. This can leave a
pending timer with a NULL function pointer, which triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) check in expire_timers().
Fix this by only clearing the timer function when actually detaching the
timer. If the timer is running, leave the function pointer intact, which is
safe because the timer will be properly detached when it finishes running.

When a cpuset isolated partition is created / updated or destroyed, the
interrupt threads are affined blindly to all the non-isolated CPUs. This
happens without taking into account the interrupt threads initial affinity
that becomes ignored.
For example in a system with 8 CPUs, if an interrupt and its kthread are
initially affine to CPU 5, creating an isolated partition with only CPU 2
inside will eventually end up affining the interrupt kthread to all CPUs
but CPU 2 (that is CPUs 0,1,3-7), losing the kthread preference for CPU 5.
Besides the blind re-affining, this doesn't take care of the actual low
level interrupt which isn't migrated. As of today the only way to isolate
non managed interrupts, along with their kthreads, is to overwrite their
affinity separately, for example through /proc/irq/
To avoid doing that manually, future development should focus on updating
the interrupt's affinity whenever cpuset isolated partitions are updated.
In the meantime, cpuset shouldn't fiddle with interrupt threads directly.
To prevent from that, set the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag to them.
This is done through kthread_bind_mask() by affining them initially to all
possible CPUs as at that point the interrupt is not started up which means
the affinity of the hard interrupt is not known. The thread will adjust
that once it reaches the handler, which is guaranteed to happen after the
initial affinity of the hard interrupt is established.

During initialization, the interrupt thread is created before the interrupt
is enabled. The interrupt enablement happens before the actual kthread wake
up point. Once the interrupt is enabled the hardware can raise an interrupt
and once setup_irq() drops the descriptor lock a interrupt wake-up can
happen.
Even when such an interrupt can be considered premature, this is not a
problem in general because at the point where the descriptor lock is
dropped and the wakeup can happen, the data which is used by the thread is
fully initialized.
Though from the perspective of least surprise, the initial wakeup really
should be performed by the setup code and not randomly by a premature
interrupt.
Prevent this by performing a wake-up only if the target is in state
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, which the thread uses in wait_for_interrupt().
If the thread is still in state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, the wake-up is not
lost because after the setup code completed the initial wake-up the thread
will observe the IRQTF_RUNTHREAD and proceed with the handling.

Currently, nested rcu critical sections are rejected by the verifier and
rcu_lock state is managed by a boolean variable. Add support for nested
rcu critical sections by make active_rcu_locks a counter similar to
active_preempt_locks. bpf_rcu_read_lock() increments this counter and
bpf_rcu_read_unlock() decrements it, MEM_RCU -> PTR_UNTRUSTED transition
happens when active_rcu_locks drops to 0.

A successful ebpf tail call does not return to the caller, but to the
caller-of-the-caller, often just finishing the ebpf program altogether.
Any restrictions that the verifier needs to take into account - notably
the fact that the tail call might have modified packet pointers - are to
be checked on the caller-of-the-caller. Checking it on the caller made
the verifier refuse perfectly fine programs that would use the packet
pointers after a tail call, which is no problem as this code is only
executed if the tail call was unsuccessful, i.e. nothing happened.
This patch simulates the behavior of a tail call in the verifier. A
conditional jump to the code after the tail call is added for the case
of an unsucessful tail call, and a return to the caller is simulated for
a successful tail call.
For the successful case we assume that the tail call returns an int,
as tail calls are currently only allowed in functions that return and
int. We always assume that the tail call modified the packet pointers,
as we do not know what the tail call did.
For the unsuccessful case we know nothing happened, so we do not need to
add new constraints.
This approach also allows to check other problems that may occur with
tail calls, namely we are now able to check that precision is properly
propagated into subprograms using tail calls, as well as checking the
live slots in such a subprogram.

In [1] Dan Carpenter reported that the following code makes the
Smatch static analyser unhappy:
17904 value = map->ops->map_lookup_elem(map, &i);
17905 if (!value)
17906 return -EINVAL;
--> 17907 items[i - start] = value->xlated_off;
The analyser assumes that the `value` variable may contain an error
and thus it should be properly checked before the dereference.
On practice this will never happen as array maps do not return
error values in map_lookup_elem, but to make the Smatch and other
possible analysers happy this patch adds a formal check.

The commit1 def98c84b6 ("workqueue: Fix spurious sanity check failures
in destroy_workqueue()") tries to fix spurious sanity check failures by
stopping send_mayday() via setting wq->rescuer to NULL.
But it fails to stop the pwq->mayday_node requeuing in the rescuer, and
the commit2 e66b39af00 ("workqueue: Fix pwq ref leak in
rescuer_thread()") fixes it by checking wq->rescuer which is the result
of commit1.
Both commits together really fix spurious sanity check failures caused
by the rescuer, but they both use a convoluted method by relying on
wq->rescuer state rather than the real count of work items.
Actually __WQ_DESTROYING and drain_workqueue() together already stop
send_mayday() by draining all the work items and ensuring no new work
item requeuing.
And the more proper fix to stop the pwq->mayday_node requeuing in the
rescuer is from commit3 4f3f4cf388 ("workqueue: avoid unneeded
requeuing the pwq in rescuer thread") and renders the checking of
wq->rescuer in commit2 unnecessary.
So __WQ_DESTROYING, drain_workqueue() and commit3 together fix spurious
sanity check failures introduced by the rescuer.
Just remove the convoluted code of using wq->rescuer.

Currently, the check for whether a partition is populated does not
account for tasks in the cpuset of attaching. This is a corner case
that can leave a task stuck in a partition with no effective CPUs.
The race condition occurs as follows:
cpu0 cpu1
//cpuset A with cpu N
migrate task p to A
cpuset_can_attach
// with effective cpus
// check ok
// cpuset_mutex is not held // clear cpuset.cpus.exclusive
// making effective cpus empty
update_exclusive_cpumask
// tasks_nocpu_error check ok
// empty effective cpus, partition valid
cpuset_attach
...
// task p stays in A, with non-effective cpus.
To fix this issue, this patch introduces cs_is_populated, which considers
tasks in the attaching cpuset. This new helper is used in validate_change
and partition_is_populated.

Add a sysfs entry /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_cma_ranges to expose all CMA
crashkernel ranges.
This allows userspace tools configuring kdump to determine how much memory
is reserved for crashkernel. If CMA is used, tools can warn users when
attempting to capture user pages with CMA reservation.
The new sysfs hold the CMA ranges in below format:
cat /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_cma_ranges
100000000-10c7fffff
The reason for not including Crash CMA Ranges in /proc/iomem is to avoid
conflicts. It has been observed that contiguous memory ranges are
sometimes shown as two separate System RAM entries in /proc/iomem. If a
CMA range overlaps two System RAM ranges, adding crashk_res to /proc/iomem
can create a conflict. Reference [1] describes one such instance on the
PowerPC architecture.

Add helper function pm_sleep_fs_sync() and related data structures
as a preparation for allowing system suspend and hibernation to be
aborted by wakeup events while syncing file systems.
The new function, to be called by the suspend process in order to
sync file systems, uses a dedicated ordered workqueue to run
ksys_sync_helper() in parallel with the calling process. Next, it
waits for the completion of the filesystem sync and periodically
checks if any system wakeup events are pending, in which case it will
return an error.
If that happens while the filesystem sync is still in progress, it
will continue, possibly after pm_sleep_fs_sync() has returned, and if
that function is called again before the sync is complete, a new work
item to run ksys_sync_helper() again will be queued (and waited for)
to increase the likelihood of writing all of the dirty pages in memory
back to persistent storage.

The affinity to set to the rescuers should be consistent in all paths
when a rescuer is in detached state. The affinity could be either
wq_unbound_cpumask or unbound_effective_cpumask(wq).
Related paths:
rescuer's worker_detach_from_pool()
update wq_unbound_cpumask
update wq's cpumask
init_rescuer()
Both affinities are Ok as long as they are consistent in all paths.
In the commit 449b31ad29 ("workqueue: Init rescuer's affinities as
the wq's effective cpumask") makes init_rescuer use
unbound_effective_cpumask(wq) which is consistent with then
apply_wqattrs_commit().
But using unbound_effective_cpumask(wq) requres much more code to
maintain the consistency, and it doesn't make much sense since the
affinity is only effective when the rescuer is not processing works.
wq_unbound_cpumask is more favorable.
So apply_wqattrs_commit() and the path of "updating wq's cpumask" had
been changed to not update the rescuer's affinity, and both the paths
of "updating wq_unbound_cpumask" and "rescuer's
worker_detach_from_pool()" had been changed to use wq_unbound_cpumask.
Now, make init_rescuer() use wq_unbound_cpumask for rescuer's affinity
and make all the paths consistent.

When a rescuer is attached to a pool, its affinity should be only
managed by the pool.
But updating the detached rescuer's affinity is still meaningful so
that it will not disrupt isolated CPUs when it is to be waken up.
But the commit d64f2fa064 ("kernel/workqueue: Let rescuers follow
unbound wq cpumask changes") updates the affinity unconditionally, and
causes some issues
1) it also changes the affinity when the rescuer is already attached to
a pool, which violates the affinity management.
2) the said commit tries to update the affinity of the rescuers, but it
misses the rescuers of the PERCPU workqueues, and isolated CPUs can
be possibly disrupted by these rescuers when they are summoned.
3) The affinity to set to the rescuers should be consistent in all paths
when a rescuer is in detached state. The affinity could be either
wq_unbound_cpumask or unbound_effective_cpumask(wq). Related paths:
rescuer's worker_detach_from_pool()
update wq_unbound_cpumask
update wq's cpumask
init_rescuer()
Both affinities are Ok as long as they are consistent in all paths.
But using unbound_effective_cpumask(wq) requres much more code to
maintain the consistency, and it doesn't make much sense since the
affinity is only effective when the rescuer is not processing works.
wq_unbound_cpumask is more favorable.
Fix the 1) issue by testing rescuer->pool before updating with
wq_pool_attach_mutex held.
Fix the 2) issue by moving the rescuer's affinity updating code to
the place updating wq_unbound_cpumask and make it also update for
PERCPU workqueues.
Partially cleanup the 3) consistency issue by using wq_unbound_cpumask.
So that the path of "updating wq's cpumask" doesn't need to maintain it.
and both the paths of "updating wq_unbound_cpumask" and "rescuer's
worker_detach_from_pool()" use wq_unbound_cpumask.
Cleanup for init_rescuer()'s consistency for affinity can be done in
future.

The timer migration mechanism allows active CPUs to pull timers from
idle ones to improve the overall idle time. This is however undesired
when CPU intensive workloads run on isolated cores, as the algorithm
would move the timers from housekeeping to isolated cores, negatively
affecting the isolation.
Exclude isolated cores from the timer migration algorithm, extend the
concept of unavailable cores, currently used for offline ones, to
isolated ones:
* A core is unavailable if isolated or offline;
* A core is available if non isolated and online;
A core is considered unavailable as isolated if it belongs to:
* the isolcpus (domain) list
* an isolated cpuset
Except if it is:
* in the nohz_full list (already idle for the hierarchy)
* the nohz timekeeper core (must be available to handle global timers)
CPUs are added to the hierarchy during late boot, excluding isolated
ones, the hierarchy is also adapted when the cpuset isolation changes.
Due to how the timer migration algorithm works, any CPU part of the
hierarchy can have their global timers pulled by remote CPUs and have to
pull remote timers, only skipping pulling remote timers would break the
logic.
For this reason, prevent isolated CPUs from pulling remote global
timers, but also the other way around: any global timer started on an
isolated CPU will run there. This does not break the concept of
isolation (global timers don't come from outside the CPU) and, if
considered inappropriate, can usually be mitigated with other isolation
techniques (e.g. IRQ pinning).
This effect was noticed on a 128 cores machine running oslat on the
isolated cores (1-31,33-63,65-95,97-127). The tool monopolises CPUs,
and the CPU with lowest count in a timer migration hierarchy (here 1
and 65) appears as always active and continuously pulls global timers,
from the housekeeping CPUs. This ends up moving driver work (e.g.
delayed work) to isolated CPUs and causes latency spikes:
before the change:
# oslat -c 1-31,33-63,65-95,97-127 -D 62s
...
Maximum: 1203 10 3 4 ... 5 (us)
after the change:
# oslat -c 1-31,33-63,65-95,97-127 -D 62s
...
Maximum: 10 4 3 4 3 ... 5 (us)
The same behaviour was observed on a machine with as few as 20 cores /
40 threads with isocpus set to: 1-9,11-39 with rtla-osnoise-top.

to the p2pdma_provider structure instead of the pci_p2pdma_map_state.
This simplifies the API by removing the need for callers to extract
the provider from the state structure.
The change updates all callers across the kernel (block layer, IOMMU,
DMA direct, and HMM) to pass the provider pointer directly, making
the code more explicit and reducing unnecessary indirection. This
also removes the runtime warning check since callers now have direct
control over which provider they use.

kthread_run_worker() returns an ERR_PTR() on failure rather than NULL,

scx_alloc_and_add_sched() and scx_enable() ends up dereferencing an
error pointer.
Error handling is fixed in scx_alloc_and_add_sched() to propagate
PTR_ERR() into ret, so that scx_enable() jumps to the existing error
path, avoiding random dereference on failure.

*** Bug description ***
When testing kexec-reboot on a 144 cpus machine with
isolcpus=managed_irq,domain,1-71,73-143 in kernel command line, I
encounter the following bug:
[ 97.114759] psci: CPU142 killed (polled 0 ms)
[ 97.333236] Failed to offline CPU143 - error=-16
[ 97.333246] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 97.342682] kernel BUG at kernel/cpu.c:1569!
[ 97.347049] Internal error: Oops - BUG: 00000000f2000800 [#1] SMP
[...]
In essence, the issue originates from the CPU hot-removal process, not
limited to kexec. It can be reproduced by writing a SCHED_DEADLINE
program that waits indefinitely on a semaphore, spawning multiple
instances to ensure some run on CPU 72, and then offlining CPUs 1–143
one by one. When attempting this, CPU 143 failed to go offline.
bash -c 'taskset -cp 0 $$ && for i in {1..143}; do echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online 2>/dev/null; done'
Tracking down this issue, I found that dl_bw_deactivate() returned
-EBUSY, which caused sched_cpu_deactivate() to fail on the last CPU.
But that is not the fact, and contributed by the following factors:
When a CPU is inactive, cpu_rq()->rd is set to def_root_domain. For an
blocked-state deadline task (in this case, "cppc_fie"), it was not
migrated to CPU0, and its task_rq() information is stale. So its rq->rd
points to def_root_domain instead of the one shared with CPU0. As a
result, its bandwidth is wrongly accounted into a wrong root domain
during domain rebuild.
*** Issue ***
The key point is that root_domain is only tracked through active rq->rd.
To avoid using a global data structure to track all root_domains in the
system, there should be a method to locate an active CPU within the
corresponding root_domain.
*** Solution ***
To locate the active cpu, the following rules for deadline
sub-system is useful
-1.any cpu belongs to a unique root domain at a given time
-2.DL bandwidth checker ensures that the root domain has active cpus.
Now, let's examine the blocked-state task P.
If P is attached to a cpuset that is a partition root, it is
straightforward to find an active CPU.
If P is attached to a cpuset that has changed from 'root' to 'member',
the active CPUs are grouped into the parent root domain. Naturally, the
CPUs' capacity and reserved DL bandwidth are taken into account in the
ancestor root domain. (In practice, it may be unsafe to attach P to an
arbitrary root domain, since that domain may lack sufficient DL
bandwidth for P.) Again, it is straightforward to find an active CPU in
the ancestor root domain.
This patch groups CPUs into isolated and housekeeping sets. For the
housekeeping group, it walks up the cpuset hierarchy to find active CPUs
in P's root domain and retrieves the valid rd from cpu_rq(cpu)->rd.

If kobject_create_and_add() or sysfs_create_group() fails during loop

child kobjects are leaked.
Fix this by adding proper error handling with goto labels to ensure all

mm_update_cpus_allowed() is not required to be invoked for affinity changes
due to migrate_disable() and migrate_enable().
migrate_disable() restricts the task temporarily to a CPU on which the task
was already allowed to run, so nothing changes. migrate_enable() restores
the actual task affinity mask.
If that mask changed between migrate_disable() and migrate_enable() then
that change was already accounted for.

In commit 0345691b24 ("tick/rcu: Stop allowing RCU_SOFTIRQ in idle") the
new function report_idle_softirq() was created by breaking code out of the
existing can_stop_idle_tick() for kernels v5.18 and newer.
In doing so, the code essentially went from this form:
if (A) {
static int ratelimit;
if (ratelimit < 10 && !C && A&D) {
pr_warn("NOHZ tick-stop error: ...");
ratelimit++;
}
return false;
}
to a new function:
static bool report_idle_softirq(void)
{
static int ratelimit;
if (likely(!A))
return false;
if (ratelimit < 10)
return false;
...
pr_warn("NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #%02x!!!\n",
pending);
ratelimit++;
return true;
}
commit a7e282c777 ("tick/rcu: Fix bogus ratelimit condition") realized
ratelimit was essentially set to zero instead of ten, and hence *no*
softirq pending messages would ever be issued, but "fixed" it as:
- if (ratelimit < 10)
+ if (ratelimit >= 10)
return false;
However, this fix introduced another issue:
When ratelimit is greater than or equal 10, even if A is true, it will
directly return false. While ratelimit in the original code was only used
to control printing and will not affect the return value.
Restore the original logic and restrict ratelimit to control the printk and
not the return value.

When governors used during cpuidle try to find the most optimal idle state

Allowing irq_work to be scheduled while trying to suspend has shown
to cause problems as some architectures interpret the pending
interrupts as a reason to not suspend. This became a problem for
printk() with the introduction of NBCON consoles. With every
printk() call, NBCON console printing kthreads are woken by queueing
irq_work. This means that irq_work continues to be queued due to
printk() calls late in the suspend procedure.
Avoid this problem by preventing printk() from queueing irq_work
once console suspending has begun. This applies to triggering NBCON
and legacy deferred printing as well as klogd waiters.
Since triggering of NBCON threaded printing relies on irq_work, the
pr_flush() within console_suspend_all() is used to perform the final
flushing before suspending consoles and blocking irq_work queueing.
NBCON consoles that are not suspended (due to the usage of the
"no_console_suspend" boot argument) transition to atomic flushing.
Introduce a new global variable @console_irqwork_blocked to flag
when irq_work queueing is to be avoided. The flag is used by
printk_get_console_flush_type() to avoid allowing deferred printing
and switch NBCON consoles to atomic flushing. It is also used by
vprintk_emit() to avoid klogd waking.
Add WARN_ON_ONCE(console_irqwork_blocked) to the irq_work queuing
functions to catch any code that attempts to queue printk irq_work
during the suspending/resuming procedure.

Currently, when in-kernel module decompression (CONFIG_MODULE_DECOMPRESS)
is enabled, IMA has no way to verify the appended module signature as it
can't decompress the module.
Define a new kernel_read_file_id enumerate READING_MODULE_COMPRESSED so
IMA can calculate the compressed kernel module data hash on
READING_MODULE_COMPRESSED and defer appraising/measuring it until on
READING_MODULE when the module has been decompressed.
Before enabling in-kernel module decompression, a kernel module in
initramfs can still be loaded with ima_policy=secure_boot. So adjust the
kernel module rule in secure_boot policy to allow either an IMA
signature OR an appended signature i.e. to use

Syzkaller triggers an invalid memory access issue following fault
injection in update_effective_progs. The issue can be described as
follows:
__cgroup_bpf_detach
update_effective_progs
compute_effective_progs
bpf_prog_array_alloc <-- fault inject
purge_effective_progs
/* change to dummy_bpf_prog */
array->items[index] = &dummy_bpf_prog.prog

...
__cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb

/* invalid memory access */
flags = u64_stats_update_begin_irqsave(&stats->syncp)
---softirq end---
static_branch_dec(&cgroup_bpf_enabled_key[atype])
The reason is that fault injection caused update_effective_progs to fail
and then changed the original prog into dummy_bpf_prog.prog in
purge_effective_progs. Then a softirq came, and accessing the members of
dummy_bpf_prog.prog in the softirq triggers invalid mem access.
To fix it, skip updating stats when stats is NULL.

Five fixes addressing PREEMPT_RT compatibility and locking issues. Three
commits fix potential deadlocks and sleeps in atomic contexts on RT kernels by
converting locks to raw spinlocks and ensuring IRQ work runs in hard-irq
context. The remaining two fix unsafe locking in the debug dump path and a
variable dereference typo.

Add a randomized algorithm that runs newidle balancing proportional to
its success rate.
This improves schbench significantly:
6.18-rc4: 2.22 Mrps/s
6.18-rc4+revert: 2.04 Mrps/s
6.18-rc4+revert+random: 2.18 Mrps/S
Conversely, per Adam Li this affects SpecJBB slightly, reducing it by 1%:
6.17: -6%
6.17+revert: 0%
6.17+revert+random: -1%

For instance Adam Li reported a 6% regression on SpecJBB.

Reimplement NEXT_BUDDY preemption to take into account the deadline and
eligibility of the wakee with respect to the waker. In the event
multiple buddies could be considered, the one with the earliest deadline
is selected.
Sync wakeups are treated differently to every other type of wakeup. The
WF_SYNC assumption is that the waker promises to sleep in the very near
future. This is violated in enough cases that WF_SYNC should be treated
as a suggestion instead of a contract. If a waker does go to sleep almost
immediately then the delay in wakeup is negligible. In other cases, it's
throttled based on the accumulated runtime of the waker so there is a
chance that some batched wakeups have been issued before preemption.
For all other wakeups, preemption happens if the wakee has a earlier
deadline than the waker and eligible to run.
While many workloads were tested, the two main targets were a modified
dbench4 benchmark and hackbench because the are on opposite ends of the
spectrum -- one prefers throughput by avoiding preemption and the other
relies on preemption.
First is the dbench throughput data even though it is a poor metric but
it is the default metric. The test machine is a 2-socket machine and the
backing filesystem is XFS as a lot of the IO work is dispatched to kernel
threads. It's important to note that these results are not representative
across all machines, especially Zen machines, as different bottlenecks
are exposed on different machines and filesystems.

That is still looking good and the variance is reduced quite a bit.
Finally, fairness is a concern so the next report tracks how many
milliseconds does it take for all clients to complete a workfile. This
one is tricky because dbench makes to effort to synchronise clients so
the durations at benchmark start time differ substantially from typical
runtimes. This problem could be mitigated by warming up the benchmark
for a number of minutes but it's a matter of opinion whether that
counts as an evasion of inconvenient results.

This is more of a mixed bag but it at least shows that fairness
is not crippled.
The hackbench results are more neutral but this is still important.
It's possible to boost the dbench figures by a large amount but only by
crippling the performance of a workload like hackbench. The WF_SYNC
behaviour is important for these workloads and is why the WF_SYNC
changes are not a separate patch.

Processes using pipes are impacted but the variance (not presented) indicates
it's close to noise and the results are not always reproducible. If executed
across multiple reboots, it may show neutral or small gains so the worst
measured results are presented.
Hackbench using sockets is more reliably neutral as the wakeup
mechanisms are different between sockets and pipes.

The NEXT_BUDDY feature reinforces wakeup preemption to encourage the last
wakee to be scheduled sooner on the assumption that the waker/wakee share
cache-hot data. In CFS, it was paired with LAST_BUDDY to switch back on
the assumption that the pair of tasks still share data but also relied
on START_DEBIT and the exact WAKEUP_PREEMPTION implementation to get
good results.
NEXT_BUDDY has been disabled since commit 0ec9fab3d1 ("sched: Improve
latencies and throughput") and LAST_BUDDY was removed in commit 5e963f2bd4
("sched/fair: Commit to EEVDF"). The reasoning is not clear but as vruntime
spread is mentioned so the expectation is that NEXT_BUDDY had an impact
on overall fairness. It was not noted why LAST_BUDDY was removed but it
is assumed that it's very difficult to reason what LAST_BUDDY's correct
and effective behaviour should be while still respecting EEVDFs goals.
Peter Zijlstra noted during review;
I think I was just struggling to make sense of things and figured
less is more and axed it.
I have vague memories trying to work through the dynamics of
a wakeup-stack and the EEVDF latency requirements and getting
a head-ache.
NEXT_BUDDY is easier to reason about given that it's a point-in-time
decision on the wakees deadline and eligibilty relative to the waker. Enable
NEXT_BUDDY as a preparation path to document that the decision to ignore
the current implementation is deliberate. While not presented, the results
were at best neutral and often much more variable.

The NUMA sched domain sets the SD_SERIALIZE flag by default, allowing
only one NUMA load balancing operation to run system-wide at a time.
Currently, each sched group leader directly under NUMA domain attempts
to acquire the global sched_balance_running flag via cmpxchg() before
checking whether load balancing is due or whether it is the designated
load balancer for that NUMA domain. On systems with a large number
of cores, this causes significant cache contention on the shared
sched_balance_running flag.
This patch reduces unnecessary cmpxchg() operations by first checking
that the balancer is the designated leader for a NUMA domain from
should_we_balance(), and the balance interval has expired before
trying to acquire sched_balance_running to load balance a NUMA
domain.
On a 2-socket Granite Rapids system with sub-NUMA clustering enabled,
running an OLTP workload, 7.8% of total CPU cycles were previously spent
in sched_balance_domain() contending on sched_balance_running before
this change.

The free_kick_syncs_rcu() rcu-callback only invoke kvfree() to
release per-cpu ksyncs object, this can use kvfree_rcu() replace
call_rcu() to release per-cpu ksyncs object in the free_kick_syncs().

For PREEMPT_RT kernels, the kick_cpus_irq_workfn() be invoked in
the per-cpu irq_work/* task context and there is no rcu-read critical
section to protect. this commit therefore use IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD() to

INVALID_PHYS_ADDR has very similar definitions across the code base.
Hence just move that inside header <liux/mm.h> for more generic usage.
Also drop the now redundant ones which are no longer required.

For now, including <asm/pgalloc.h> instead of <linux/pgalloc.h> is
technically fine unless the .c file calls p*d_populate_kernel() helper
functions.
But it is a better practice to always include <linux/pgalloc.h>. Include
<linux/pgalloc.h> instead of <asm/pgalloc.h> outside arch/.

The kernel can throttle network sockets if the memory cgroup associated
with the corresponding socket is under memory pressure. The throttling
actions include clamping the transmit window, failing to expand receive or
send buffers, aggressively prune out-of-order receive queue, FIN deferred
to a retransmitted packet and more. Let's add memcg metric to track such
throttling actions.
At the moment memcg memory pressure is defined through vmpressure and in
future it may be defined using PSI or we may add more flexible way for the
users to define memory pressure, maybe through ebpf. However the
potential throttling actions will remain the same, so this newly
introduced metric will continue to track throttling actions irrespective
of how memcg memory pressure is defined.

mm_get_unmapped_area() is a wrapper around arch_get_unmapped_area() /
arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), both of which search current->mm for
some free space. Neither take an mm_struct - they implicitly operate on
current->mm.
But the wrapper takes an mm_struct and uses it to decide whether to search
bottom up or top down. All callers pass in current->mm for this, so
everything is working consistently. But it feels like an accident waiting
to happen; eventually someone will call that function with a different mm,
expecting to find free space in it, but what gets returned is free space
in the current mm.
So let's simplify by removing the parameter and have the wrapper use
current->mm to decide which end to start at. Now everything is consistent
and self-documenting.

When crashkernel is configured with a high reservation, shrinking its
value below the low crashkernel reservation causes two issues:
1. Invalid crashkernel resource objects
2. Kernel crash if crashkernel shrinking is done twice
For example, with crashkernel=200M,high, the kernel reserves 200MB of high
memory and some default low memory (say 256MB). The reservation appears
as:
cat /proc/iomem | grep -i crash
af000000-beffffff : Crash kernel
433000000-43f7fffff : Crash kernel
If crashkernel is then shrunk to 50MB (echo 52428800 >
/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size), /proc/iomem still shows 256MB reserved:
af000000-beffffff : Crash kernel
Instead, it should show 50MB:
af000000-b21fffff : Crash kernel
Further shrinking crashkernel to 40MB causes a kernel crash with the
following trace (x86):
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038

This happens because __crash_shrink_memory()/kernel/crash_core.c
incorrectly updates the crashk_res resource object even when

Fix this by ensuring the correct crashkernel resource object is updated

Metadata about a kfunc call is added to the kfunc_tab in
add_kfunc_call() but the call instruction itself could get removed by
opt_remove_dead_code() later if it is not reachable.
If the call instruction is removed, specialize_kfunc() is never called
for it and the desc->imm in the kfunc_tab is never initialized for this
kfunc call. In this case, sort_kfunc_descs_by_imm_off(env->prog); in
do_misc_fixups() doesn't sort the table correctly.
This is a problem for s390 as its JIT uses this table to find the
addresses for kfuncs, and if this table is not sorted properly, JIT may
fail to find addresses for valid kfunc calls.
This was exposed by:
commit d869d56ca8 ("bpf: verifier: refactor kfunc specialization")
as before this commit, desc->imm was initialised in add_kfunc_call()
which happens before dead code elimination.
Move desc->imm setup down to sort_kfunc_descs_by_imm_off(), this fixes
the problem and also saves us from having the same logic in
add_kfunc_call() and specialize_kfunc().

bpf_try_get_buffers() returns one of multiple per-CPU buffers based on a
per-CPU nesting counter. This mechanism expects that buffers are not
endlessly acquired before being returned. migrate_disable() ensures that a
task remains on the same CPU, but it does not prevent the task from being
preempted by another task on that CPU.
Without disabled preemption, a task may be preempted while holding a
buffer, allowing another task to run on same CPU and acquire an
additional buffer. Several such preemptions can cause the per-CPU
nest counter to exceed MAX_BPRINTF_NEST_LEVEL and trigger the warning in
bpf_try_get_buffers(). Adding preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() around
buffer acquisition and release prevents this task preemption and
preserves the intended bounded nesting behavior.

The usage pattern for widen_imprecise_scalars() looks as follows:
prev_st = find_prev_entry(env, ...);
queued_st = push_stack(...);
widen_imprecise_scalars(env, prev_st, queued_st);
Where prev_st is an ancestor of the queued_st in the explored states
tree. This ancestor is not guaranteed to have same allocated stack
depth as queued_st. E.g. in the following case:
def main():
for i in 1..2:
foo(i) // same callsite, differnt param
def foo(i):
if i == 1:
use 128 bytes of stack
iterator based loop

Modify the suspend_test() function to allow the test delay to be
interrupted by wakeup events.
This improves the responsiveness of the system during suspend testing
when wakeup events occur, allowing the suspend process to proceed
without waiting for the full test delay to complete when wakeup events
are detected.
Additionally, using msleep() instead of mdelay() avoids potential soft
lockup "CPU stuck" issues when long test delays are configured.

When the system has many cores and task switching is frequent,
setting set_ftrace_pid can cause frequent pid_list->lock contention
and high system sys usage.
For example, in a 288-core VM environment, we observed 267 CPUs
experiencing contention on pid_list->lock, with stack traces showing:

Currently the function graph tracer's options are saved via a global mask
when it should be per instance. Use the new infrastructure to define a
"default_flags" field in the tracer structure that is used for the top
level instance as well as new ones.
Currently the global mask causes confusion:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# mkdir instances/foo
# echo function_graph > instances/foo/current_tracer
# echo 1 > options/funcgraph-args
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# cat trace

The above shows that updating the "funcgraph-args" option at the top level
instance also updates the "funcgraph-args" option in the instance but
because the update is only done by the instance that gets changed (as it
should), it's confusing to see that the option is already set in the other
instance.

Update scx_task_locks so that it's safe to lock/unlock in a
non-sleepable context in PREEMPT_RT kernels. scx_task_locks is
(non-raw) spinlock used to protect the list of tasks under SCX.
This list is updated during from finish_task_switch(), which
cannot sleep. Regular spinlocks can be locked in such a context
in non-RT kernels, but are sleepable under when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y.
Convert scx_task_locks into a raw spinlock, which is not sleepable
even on RT kernels.

rcu_read_lock() was added to shut RCU-lockdep up when this code used
__task_cred()->rcu_dereference(), but after the commit 21d1c5e386
("Reimplement RLIMIT_NPROC on top of ucounts") it is no longer needed:
task_ucounts()->task_cred_xxx() takes rcu_read_lock() itself.
NOTE: task_ucounts() returns the pointer to another rcu-protected data,
struct ucounts. So it should either be used when task->real_cred and thus
task->real_cred->ucounts is stable (release_task, copy_process,
copy_creds), or it should be called under rcu_read_lock(). In both cases
it is pointless to take rcu_read_lock() to read the cred->ucounts pointer.

The TAINT_RANDSTRUCT and TAINT_FWCTL flags are mistakenly set in the
taint_flags table as per-module flags. While this can be trivially
corrected, the issue can be avoided altogether by removing the
taint_flag.module field.
This is possible because, since commit 7fd8329ba5 ("taint/module: Clean
up global and module taint flags handling") in 2016, the handling of
module taint flags has been fully generic. Specifically,
module_flags_taint() can print all flags, and the required output buffer
size is properly defined in terms of TAINT_FLAGS_COUNT. The actual
per-module flags are always those added to module.taints by calls to
add_taint_module().

This warning occurs due to a conflict between crashkernel and System RAM
iomem resources.
The generic crashkernel reservation adds the crashkernel memory range to
/proc/iomem during early initialization. Later, all memblock ranges are
added to /proc/iomem as System RAM. If the crashkernel region overlaps
with any memblock range, it causes a conflict while adding those memblock
regions as iomem resources, triggering the above warning. The conflicting
memblock regions are then omitted from /proc/iomem.
For example, if the following crashkernel region is added to /proc/iomem:
20000000-11fffffff : Crash kernel
then the following memblock regions System RAM regions fail to be inserted:
00000000-7fffffff : System RAM
80000000-257fffffff : System RAM
Fix this by not adding the crashkernel memory to /proc/iomem on powerpc.
Introduce an architecture hook to let each architecture decide whether to
export the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.
For more info checkout commit c40dd2f766 ("powerpc: Add System RAM
to /proc/iomem") and commit bce074bdbc ("powerpc: insert System RAM
resource to prevent crashkernel conflict")
Note: Before switching to the generic crashkernel reservation, powerpc
never exported the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.

The hung_task_panic sysctl is currently a blunt instrument: it's all or
nothing.
Panicking on a single hung task can be an overreaction to a transient
glitch. A more reliable indicator of a systemic problem is when
multiple tasks hang simultaneously.
Extend hung_task_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when N hung tasks are detected in a single scan.
This provides finer control to distinguish between isolated incidents
and system-wide failures.
The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic on the first hung task (unchanged)
- N > 1: Panic after N hung tasks are detected in a single scan
The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility.

__scs_magic() needs a 'void *' variable, but a 'struct task_struct *' is
given. 'task_scs(tsk)' is the starting address of the task's shadow call
stack, and '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))' is the end address of the task's
shadow call stack. Here should be '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))'.
The user-visible effect of this bug is that when CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
is enabled, the shadow call stack usage checking function
(scs_check_usage) would scan an incorrect memory range. This could lead
to:
1. **Inaccurate stack usage reporting**: The function would calculate
wrong usage statistics for the shadow call stack, potentially showing
incorrect value in kmsg.
2. **Potential kernel crash**: If the value of __scs_magic(tsk)is
greater than that of __scs_magic(task_scs(tsk)), the for loop may
access unmapped memory, potentially causing a kernel panic. However,
this scenario is unlikely because task_struct is allocated via the slab
allocator (which typically returns lower addresses), while the shadow
call stack returned by task_scs(tsk) is allocated via vmalloc(which
typically returns higher addresses).
However, since this is purely a debugging feature
(CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE), normal production systems should be not
unaffected. The bug only impacts developers and testers who are actively
debugging stack usage with this configuration enabled.

During kexec_segment loading, when copying the content of the segment
(i.e. kexec_segment::kbuf or kexec_segment::buf) to its associated pages,
kimage_load_{cma,normal,crash}_segment handle the case where the physical
address of the segment is not page aligned, e.g. in
kimage_load_normal_segment:
page = kimage_alloc_page(image, GFP_HIGHUSER, maddr);
// ...
ptr = kmap_local_page(page);
// ...
ptr += maddr & ~PAGE_MASK;
mchunk = min_t(size_t, mbytes,
PAGE_SIZE - (maddr & ~PAGE_MASK));
// ^^^^ Non page-aligned segments handled here ^^^
// ...
if (image->file_mode)
memcpy(ptr, kbuf, uchunk);
else
result = copy_from_user(ptr, buf, uchunk);
(similar logic is present in kimage_load_{cma,crash}_segment).
This is actually not needed because, prior to their loading, all
kexec_segments first go through a vetting step in
`sanity_check_segment_list`, which rejects any segment that is not
page-aligned:
for (i = 0; i < nr_segments; i++) {
unsigned long mstart, mend;
mstart = image->segment[i].mem;
mend = mstart + image->segment[i].memsz;
// ...
if ((mstart & ~PAGE_MASK) || (mend & ~PAGE_MASK))
return -EADDRNOTAVAIL;
// ...
}
In case `sanity_check_segment_list` finds a non-page aligned the whole
kexec load is aborted and no segment is loaded.
This means that `kimage_load_{cma,normal,crash}_segment` never actually
have to handle non page-aligned segments and `(maddr & ~PAGE_MASK) == 0`
is always true no matter if the segment is coming from a file (i.e.
`kexec_file_load` syscall), from a user-space buffer (i.e. `kexec_load`
syscall) or created by the kernel through `kexec_add_buffer`. In the
latter case, `kexec_add_buffer` actually enforces the page alignment:
/* Ensure minimum alignment needed for segments. */
kbuf->memsz = ALIGN(kbuf->memsz, PAGE_SIZE);
kbuf->buf_align = max(kbuf->buf_align, PAGE_SIZE);

In bypass mode, tasks are queued on per-CPU bypass DSQs. While this works well
in most cases, there is a failure mode where a BPF scheduler can skew task
placement severely before triggering bypass in highly over-saturated systems.
If most tasks end up concentrated on a few CPUs, those CPUs can accumulate
queues that are too long to drain in a reasonable time, leading to RCU stalls
and hung tasks.
Implement a simple timer-based load balancer that redistributes tasks across
CPUs within each NUMA node. The balancer runs periodically (default 500ms,
tunable via bypass_lb_intv_us module parameter) and moves tasks from overloaded
CPUs to underloaded ones.
When moving tasks between bypass DSQs, the load balancer holds nested DSQ locks
to avoid dropping and reacquiring the donor DSQ lock on each iteration, as
donor DSQs can be very long and highly contended. Add the SCX_ENQ_NESTED flag
and use raw_spin_lock_nested() in dispatch_enqueue() to support this. The load
balancer timer function reads scx_bypass_depth locklessly to check whether
bypass mode is active. Use WRITE_ONCE() when updating scx_bypass_depth to pair
with the READ_ONCE() in the timer function.
This has been tested on a 192 CPU dual socket AMD EPYC machine with ~20k
runnable tasks running scx_cpu0. As scx_cpu0 queues all tasks to CPU0, almost
all tasks end up on CPU0 creating severe imbalance. Without the load balancer,
disabling the scheduler can lead to RCU stalls and hung tasks, taking a very
long time to complete. With the load balancer, disable completes in about a
second.
The load balancing operation can be monitored using the sched_ext_bypass_lb
tracepoint and disabled by setting bypass_lb_intv_us to 0.

A poorly behaving BPF scheduler can trigger hard lockup. For example, on a
large system with many tasks pinned to different subsets of CPUs, if the BPF
scheduler puts all tasks in a single DSQ and lets all CPUs at it, the DSQ lock
can be contended to the point where hardlockup triggers. Unfortunately,
hardlockup can be the first signal out of such situations, thus requiring
hardlockup handling.
Hook scx_hardlockup() into the hardlockup detector to try kicking out the
current scheduler in an attempt to recover the system to a good state. The
handling strategy can delay watchdog taking its own action by one polling
period; however, given that the only remediation for hardlockup is crash, this
is likely an acceptable trade-off.

62dcbab8b0 ("sched_ext: Avoid live-locking bypass mode switching") introduced
the breather mechanism to inject delays during bypass mode switching. It
maintains operation semantics unchanged while reducing lock contention to avoid
live-locks on large NUMA systems.
However, the breather only activates when exiting the scheduler, so there's no
need to maintain operation semantics. Simplify by exiting dispatch and move
operations immediately when scx_aborting is set. In consume_dispatch_q(), break
out of the task iteration loop. In scx_dsq_move(), return early before
acquiring locks.
This also fixes cases the breather mechanism cannot handle. When a large system
has many runnable threads affinitized to different CPU subsets and the BPF
scheduler places them all into a single DSQ, many CPUs can scan the DSQ
concurrently for tasks they can run. This can cause DSQ and RQ locks to be held
for extended periods, leading to various failure modes. The breather cannot
solve this because once in the consume loop, there's no exit. The new mechanism
fixes this by exiting the loop immediately.
The bypass DSQ is exempted to ensure the bypass mechanism itself can make
progress.

The breather mechanism was introduced in 62dcbab8b0 ("sched_ext: Avoid
live-locking bypass mode switching") and e32c260195 ("sched_ext: Enable the
ops breather and eject BPF scheduler on softlockup") to prevent live-locks by
injecting delays when CPUs are trapped in dispatch paths.
Currently, it uses scx_breather_depth (atomic_t) and scx_in_softlockup
(unsigned long) with separate increment/decrement and cleanup operations. The
breather is only activated when aborting, so tie it directly to the exit
mechanism. Replace both variables with scx_aborting flag set when exit is
claimed and cleared after bypass is enabled. Introduce scx_claim_exit() to
consolidate exit_kind claiming and breather enablement. This eliminates
scx_clear_softlockup() and simplifies scx_softlockup() and scx_bypass().
The breather mechanism will be replaced by a different abort mechanism in a
future patch. This simplification prepares for that change.

Bypass mode routes tasks through fallback dispatch queues. Originally a single
global DSQ, b7b3b2dbae ("sched_ext: Split the global DSQ per NUMA node")
changed this to per-node DSQs to resolve NUMA-related livelocks.
Dan Schatzberg found per-node DSQs can still livelock when many threads are
pinned to different small CPU subsets: each CPU must scan many incompatible
tasks to find runnable ones, causing severe contention with high CPU counts.
Switch to per-CPU bypass DSQs. Each task queues on its current CPU. Default
idle CPU selection and direct dispatch handle most cases well.
This introduces a failure mode when tasks concentrate on one CPU in
over-saturated systems. If the BPF scheduler severely skews placement before
triggering bypass, that CPU's queue may be too long to drain, causing RCU
stalls. A load balancer in a future patch will address this. The bypass DSQ is
separate from local DSQ to enable load balancing: local DSQs use rq locks,
preventing efficient scanning and transfer across CPUs, especially problematic
when systems are already contended.

After instances were created where a tracer may exist in more than one

The above shows that setting "func-args" in the top level instance also
set it in the instance "foo", but since the interface of the trace flags
are per instance, the update didn't take affect in the "foo" instance.
Update the infrastructure to allow tracers to add a "default_flags" field
in the tracer structure that can be set instead of "flags" which will make
the flags per instance. If a tracer needs to keep the flags global (like
blktrace), keeping the "flags" field set will keep the old behavior.
This does not update function or the function graph tracers. That will be

Reactors can be called from any context through tracepoints.
When developing reactors care needs to be taken to only call APIs which
are safe. As the tracepoints used during testing may not actually be
called from restrictive contexts lockdep may not be helpful.
Add explicit overrides to help lockdep find invalid code patterns.
The usage of LD_WAIT_FREE will trigger lockdep warnings in the panic
reactor. These are indeed valid warnings but they are out of scope for
RV and will instead be fixed by the printk subsystem.

Gabriel reported that the dl_server doesn't stop as expected.
The problem was found to be the fact that idle time and fair runtime are
treated equally. Both will count towards dl_server runtime and push the
activation forwards when it is in the zero-laxity wait state.
Notably:
dl_server_update_idle()
update_curr_dl_se()
if (dl_defer && dl_throttled && dl_runtime_exceeded())
hrtimer_try_to_cancel(); // stop timer
replenish_dl_new_period()
deadline = now + dl_deadline; // fwd period
runtime = dl_runtime;
start_dl_timer(); // restart timer
And while we do want idle time accounted towards the *current* activation of
the dl_server -- after all, a fair task could've ran if we had any -- we don't
necessarily want idle time to cause or push forward an activation.
Introduce dl_defer_idle to make this distinction. It will be set once idle time
pushed the activation forward, once set idle time will only be allowed to
consume any runtime but not push the activation. This will then cause
dl_server_timer() to fire, which will stop the dl_server.
Any non-idle time accounting during this phase will clear dl_defer_idle, so
only a full period of idle will cause the dl_server to stop.

The dl_server time accounting code is a little odd. The normal scheduler
pattern is to update curr before doing something, such that the old state is
fully accounted before changing state.
Notably, the dl_server_timer() needs to propagate the current time accounting
since the current task could be ran by dl_server and thus this can affect
dl_se->runtime. Similarly for dl_server_start().
And since the (deferred) dl_server wants idle time accounted, rework
sched_idle_class time accounting to be more like all the others.

Basically, from the constraint that the sum of lag is zero, you can
infer that the 0-lag point is the weighted average of the individual
vruntime, which is what we're trying to compute:
\Sum w_i * v_i
avg = --------------
\Sum w_i
Now, since vruntime takes the whole u64 (worse, it wraps), this
multiplication term in the numerator is not something we can compute;
instead we do the min_vruntime (v0 henceforth) thing like:
v_i = (v_i - v0) + v0
This does two things:
- it keeps the key: (v_i - v0) 'small';
- it creates a relative 0-point in the modular space.
If you do that subtitution and work it all out, you end up with:
\Sum w_i * (v_i - v0)
avg = --------------------- + v0
\Sum w_i
Since you cannot very well track a ratio like that (and not suffer
terrible numerical problems) we simpy track the numerator and
denominator individually and only perform the division when strictly
needed.
Notably, the numerator lives in cfs_rq->avg_vruntime and the denominator
lives in cfs_rq->avg_load.
The one extra 'funny' is that these numbers track the entities in the
tree, and current is typically outside of the tree, so avg_vruntime()
adds current when needed before doing the division.
(vruntime_eligible() elides the division by cross-wise multiplication)
Anyway, as mentioned above, we currently use the CFS era min_vruntime
for this purpose. However, this thing can only move forward, while the
above avg can in fact move backward (when a non-eligible task leaves,
the average becomes smaller), this can cause trouble when through
happenstance (or construction) these values drift far enough apart to
wreck the game.
Replace cfs_rq::min_vruntime with cfs_rq::zero_vruntime which is kept
near/at avg_vruntime, following its motion.
The down-side is that this requires computing the avg more often.

2. Another CPU might reuse the space in the mean time. It can be

3. There is exactly enough space when the result of the subtraction

The setns() system call supports:
(1) namespace file descriptors (nsfd)
(2) process file descriptors (pidfd)
When using nsfds the namespaces will remain active because they are
pinned by the vfs. However, when pidfds are used things are more
complicated.
When the target task exits and passes through exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
or is reaped and thus also passes through exit_cred_namespaces() after
the setns()'ing task has called prepare_nsset() but before the active
reference count of the set of namespaces it wants to setns() to might
have been dropped already:
P1 P2
pid_p1 = clone(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNET | CLONE_NEWNS)
pidfd = pidfd_open(pid_p1)
setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNET | CLONE_NEWNS)
prepare_nsset()
exit(0)
// ns->__ns_active_ref == 1
// parent_ns->__ns_active_ref == 1
-> exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
-> exit_cred_namespaces()
// ns_active_ref_put() will also put
// the reference on the owner of the
// namespace. If the only reason the
// owning namespace was alive was
// because it was a parent of @ns
// it's active reference count now goes
// to zero... --------------------------------
// |
// ns->__ns_active_ref == 0 |
// parent_ns->__ns_active_ref == 0 |
| commit_nsset()
-----------------> // If setns()
// now manages to install the namespaces
// it will call ns_active_ref_get()
// on them thus bumping the active reference
// count from zero again but without also
// taking the required reference on the owner.
// Thus we get:
//
// ns->__ns_active_ref == 1
// parent_ns->__ns_active_ref == 0
When later someone does ns_active_ref_put() on @ns it will underflow
parent_ns->__ns_active_ref leading to a splat from our asserts
thinking there are still active references when in fact the counter
just underflowed.
So resurrect the ownership chain if necessary as well. If the caller
succeeded to grab passive references to the set of namespaces the
setns() should simply succeed even if the target task exists or gets
reaped in the meantime and thus has dropped all active references to its
namespaces.
The race is rare and can only be triggered when using pidfs to setns()
to namespaces. Also note that active reference on initial namespaces are
nops.
Since we now always handle parent references directly we can drop
ns_ref_active_get_owner() when adding a namespace to a namespace tree.
This is now all handled uniformly in the places where the new namespaces
actually become active.

KHO allocates metadata for its preserved memory map using the slab
allocator via kzalloc(). This metadata is temporary and is used by the
next kernel during early boot to find preserved memory.
A problem arises when KFENCE is enabled. kzalloc() calls can be randomly
intercepted by kfence_alloc(), which services the allocation from a
dedicated KFENCE memory pool. This pool is allocated early in boot via
memblock.
When booting via KHO, the memblock allocator is restricted to a "scratch
area", forcing the KFENCE pool to be allocated within it. This creates a
conflict, as the scratch area is expected to be ephemeral and
overwriteable by a subsequent kexec. If KHO metadata is placed in this
KFENCE pool, it leads to memory corruption when the next kernel is loaded.
To fix this, modify KHO to allocate its metadata directly from the buddy
allocator instead of slab.

KHO memory preservation metadata is preserved in 512 byte chunks which
requires their allocation from slab allocator. Slabs are not safe to be
used with KHO because of kfence, and because partial slabs may lead leaks
to the next kernel. Change the size to be PAGE_SIZE.
The kfence specifically may cause memory corruption, where it randomly
provides slab objects that can be within the scratch area. The reason for
that is that kfence allocates its objects prior to KHO scratch is marked
as CMA region.
While this change could potentially increase metadata overhead on systems
with sparsely preserved memory, this is being mitigated by ongoing work to
reduce sparseness during preservation via 1G guest pages. Furthermore,
this change aligns with future work on a stateless KHO, which will also
use page-sized bitmaps for its radix tree metadata.

Patch series "KHO: kfence + KHO memory corruption fix", v3.
This series fixes a memory corruption bug in KHO that occurs when KFENCE
is enabled.
The root cause is that KHO metadata, allocated via kzalloc(), can be
randomly serviced by kfence_alloc(). When a kernel boots via KHO, the
early memblock allocator is restricted to a "scratch area". This forces
the KFENCE pool to be allocated within this scratch area, creating a
conflict. If KHO metadata is subsequently placed in this pool, it gets
corrupted during the next kexec operation.
Google is using KHO and have had obscure crashes due to this memory
corruption, with stacks all over the place. I would prefer this fix to be
properly backported to stable so we can also automatically consume it once
we switch to the upstream KHO.
Patch 1/3 introduces a debug-only feature (CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_DEBUG)
that adds checks to detect and fail any operation that attempts to place
KHO metadata or preserved memory within the scratch area. This serves as
a validation and diagnostic tool to confirm the problem without affecting
production builds.
Patch 2/3 Increases bitmap to PAGE_SIZE, so buddy allocator can be used.
Patch 3/3 Provides the fix by modifying KHO to allocate its metadata
directly from the buddy allocator instead of slab. This bypasses the
KFENCE interception entirely.
This patch (of 3):
It is invalid for KHO metadata or preserved memory regions to be located
within the KHO scratch area, as this area is overwritten when the next
kernel is loaded, and used early in boot by the next kernel. This can
lead to memory corruption.
Add checks to kho_preserve_* and KHO's internal metadata allocators
(xa_load_or_alloc, new_chunk) to verify that the physical address of the
memory does not overlap with any defined scratch region. If an overlap is
detected, the operation will fail and a WARN_ON is triggered. To avoid
performance overhead in production kernels, these checks are enabled only
when CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_DEBUG is selected.

Whenever there's audit context, __audit_inode_child() gets called
numerous times, which can lead to high latency in scenarios that
create too many sysfs/debugfs entries at once, for instance, upon
device_add_disk() invocation.

__audit_inode_child() searches for both the parent and the child
in two different loops that iterate over the same list. This
process can be optimized by merging these into a single loop,
without changing the function behavior or affecting the code's
readability.
This patch merges the two loops that walk through the list
context->names_list into a single loop. This optimization resulted
in around 51% performance enhancement for the benchmark.

Some kernel configurations prohibit invoking local_bh_enable() while
interrupts are disabled. However, refscale disables interrupts to reduce
OS noise during the tests, which results in splats. This commit therefore
adds an ->enable_irqs flag to the ref_scale_ops structure, and refrains
from disabling interrupts when that flag is set. This flag is set for
the "bh" and "incpercpubh" scale_type module-parameter values.

There may be console drivers that have not yet figured out a way
to implement safe atomic printing (->write_atomic() callback).
These drivers could choose to only implement threaded printing
(->write_thread() callback), but then it is guaranteed that _no_
output will be printed during panic. Not even attempted.
As a result, developers may be tempted to implement unsafe
->write_atomic() callbacks and/or implement some sort of custom
deferred printing trickery to try to make it work. This goes
against the principle intention of the nbcon API as well as
endangers other nbcon drivers that are doing things correctly
(safely).
As a compromise, allow nbcon drivers to implement unsafe
->write_atomic() callbacks by providing a new console flag
CON_NBCON_ATOMIC_UNSAFE. When specified, the ->write_atomic()
callback for that console will _only_ be called during the
final "hope and pray" flush attempt at the end of a panic:
nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().

The function create_field_var() allocates memory for 'val' through
create_hist_field() inside parse_atom(), and for 'var' through
create_var(), which in turn allocates var->type and var->var.name
internally. Simply calling kfree() to release these structures will
result in memory leaks.
Use destroy_hist_field() to properly free 'val', and explicitly release
the memory of var->type and var->var.name before freeing 'var' itself.

The function ring_buffer_map_get_reader() is a bit more strict than the
other get reader functions, and except for certain situations the
rb_get_reader_page() should not return NULL. If it does, it triggers a
warning.
This warning was triggering but after looking at why, it was because
another acceptable situation was happening and it wasn't checked for.
If the reader catches up to the writer and there's still data to be read
on the reader page, then the rb_get_reader_page() will return NULL as
there's no new page to get.
In this situation, the reader page should not be updated and no warning
should trigger.

cgroup_task_dead() is called from finish_task_switch() which runs with
preemption disabled and doesn't allow scheduling even on PREEMPT_RT. The
function needs to acquire css_set_lock which is a regular spinlock that can
sleep on RT kernels, leading to "sleeping function called from invalid
context" warnings.
css_set_lock is too large in scope to convert to a raw_spinlock. However,
the unlinking operations don't need to run synchronously - they just need
to complete after the task is done running.
On PREEMPT_RT, defer the work through irq_work. While the work doesn't need
to happen immediately, it can't be delayed indefinitely either as the dead
task pins the cgroup and task_struct can be pinned indefinitely. Use the
lazy version of irq_work to allow batching and lower impact while ensuring
timely completion.
v2: Use IRQ_WORK_INIT_LAZY instead of immediate irq_work and add explanation
for why the work can't be delayed indefinitely (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).

Shrikanth noted that the per-cpu reference counter was still some 10%
slower than the old immutable option (which removes the reference
counting entirely).
Further optimize the per-cpu reference counter by:
- switching from RCU to preempt;
- using __this_cpu_*() since we now have preempt disabled;
- switching from smp_load_acquire() to READ_ONCE().
This is all safe because disabling preemption inhibits the RCU grace
period exactly like rcu_read_lock().
Having preemption disabled allows using __this_cpu_*() provided the
only access to the variable is in task context -- which is the case
here.
Furthermore, since we know changing fph->state to FR_ATOMIC demands a
full RCU grace period we can rely on the implied smp_mb() from that to
replace the acquire barrier().
This is very similar to the percpu_down_read_internal() fast-path.
The reason this is significant for PowerPC is that it uses the generic
this_cpu_*() implementation which relies on local_irq_disable() (the
x86 implementation relies on it being a single memop instruction to be
IRQ-safe). Switching to preempt_disable() and __this_cpu*() avoids
this IRQ state swizzling. Also, PowerPC needs LWSYNC for the ACQUIRE
barrier, not having to use explicit barriers safes a bunch.
Combined this reduces the performance gap by half, down to some 5%.

cfs_rq_c is initialized with runtime_enabled set, runtime_remaining
equals to 0 and *unthrottled*. Before any tasks are enqueued to cfs_rq_c,
*multiple* throttled tasks can migrate to cfs_rq_c (e.g., due to task
group changes). When enqueue_task_fair(cfs_rq_c, throttled_task) is
called and cfs_rq_c is in a throttled hierarchy (e.g., A is throttled),
these throttled tasks are directly placed into cfs_rq_c's limbo list by
enqueue_throttled_task().
Later, when A is unthrottled, tg_unthrottle_up(cfs_rq_c) enqueues these
tasks. The first enqueue triggers check_enqueue_throttle(), and with zero
runtime_remaining, cfs_rq_c can be throttled in throttle_cfs_rq() if it
can't get more runtime and enters tg_throttle_down(), where the warning
is hit due to remaining tasks in the limbo list.
I think it's a chaos to trigger throttle on unthrottle path, the status
of a being unthrottled cfs_rq can be in a mixed state in the end, so fix
this by granting 1ns to cfs_rq in tg_set_cfs_bandwidth(). This ensures
cfs_rq_c has a positive runtime_remaining when initialized as unthrottled
and cannot enter tg_unthrottle_up() with zero runtime_remaining.
Also, update outdated comments in tg_throttle_down() since
unthrottle_cfs_rq() is no longer called with zero runtime_remaining.
While at it, remove a redundant assignment to se in tg_throttle_down().

Add support for a new instruction
BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0
which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx. The register
Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx
register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a
correct jump table – map of type instruction array.
For example, for a C switch LLVM will generate the following code:
0: r3 = r1 # "switch (r3)"
1: if r3 > 0x13 goto +0x666 # check r3 boundaries
2: r3 <<= 0x3 # adjust to an index in array of addresses
3: r1 = 0xbeef ll # r1 is PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE, r1->map_ptr=M
5: r1 += r3 # r1 inherits boundaries from r3
6: r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0x0) # r1 now has type INSN_TO_PTR
7: gotox r1 # jit will generate proper code
Here the gotox instruction corresponds to one particular map. This is
possible however to have a gotox instruction which can be loaded from
different maps, e.g.
0: r1 &= 0x1
1: r2 <<= 0x3
2: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_1
4: r3 += r2
5: if r1 == 0x0 goto +0x4
6: r1 <<= 0x3
7: r3 = 0x0 ll # load from map M_2
9: r3 += r1
A: r1 = *(u64 *)(r3 + 0x0)
B: gotox r1 # jump to target loaded from M_1 or M_2
During check_cfg stage the verifier will collect all the maps which
point to inside the subprog being verified. When building the config,
the high 16 bytes of the insn_state are used, so this patch
(theoretically) supports jump tables of up to 2^16 slots.
During the later stage, in check_indirect_jump, it is checked that
the register Rx was loaded from a particular instruction array.

On bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD) syscall user-supplied BPF programs are
translated by the verifier into "xlated" BPF programs. During this
process the original instructions offsets might be adjusted and/or
individual instructions might be replaced by new sets of instructions,
or deleted.
Add a new BPF map type which is aimed to keep track of how, for a
given program, the original instructions were relocated during the
verification. Also, besides keeping track of the original -> xlated
mapping, make x86 JIT to build the xlated -> jitted mapping for every
instruction listed in an instruction array. This is required for every
future application of instruction arrays: static keys, indirect jumps
and indirect calls.
A map of the BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY type must be created with a u32
keys and value of size 8. The values have different semantics for
userspace and for BPF space. For userspace a value consists of two
u32 values – xlated and jitted offsets. For BPF side the value is
a real pointer to a jitted instruction.
On map creation/initialization, before loading the program, each
element of the map should be initialized to point to an instruction
offset within the program. Before the program load such maps should
be made frozen. After the program verification xlated and jitted
offsets can be read via the bpf(2) syscall.
If a tracked instruction is removed by the verifier, then the xlated
offset is set to (u32)-1 which is considered to be too big for a valid
BPF program offset.
One such a map can, obviously, be used to track one and only one BPF
program. If the verification process was unsuccessful, then the same
map can be re-used to verify the program with a different log level.
However, if the program was loaded fine, then such a map, being
frozen in any case, can't be reused by other programs even after the
program release.
Example. Consider the following original and xlated programs:
Original prog: Xlated prog:
0: r1 = 0x0 0: r1 = 0
1: *(u32 *)(r10 - 0x4) = r1 1: *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1
2: r2 = r10 2: r2 = r10
3: r2 += -0x4 3: r2 += -4
4: r1 = 0x0 ll 4: r1 = map[id:88]
6: call 0x1 6: r1 += 272
7: r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0)
8: if r0 >= 0x1 goto pc+3
9: r0 <<= 3
10: r0 += r1
11: goto pc+1
12: r0 = 0
7: r6 = r0 13: r6 = r0
8: if r6 == 0x0 goto +0x2 14: if r6 == 0x0 goto pc+4
9: call 0x76 15: r0 = 0xffffffff8d2079c0
17: r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0)
10: *(u64 *)(r6 + 0x0) = r0 18: *(u64 *)(r6 +0) = r0
11: r0 = 0x0 19: r0 = 0x0
12: exit 20: exit
An instruction array map, containing, e.g., instructions [0,4,7,12]
will be translated by the verifier to [0,4,13,20]. A map with
index 5 (the middle of 16-byte instruction) or indexes greater than 12
(outside the program boundaries) would be rejected.
The functionality provided by this patch will be extended in consequent
patches to implement BPF Static Keys, indirect jumps, and indirect calls.

This commit creates DEFINE_SRCU_FAST() and DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU_FAST()
macros that are similar to DEFINE_SRCU() and DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU(),
but which create srcu_struct structures that are usable only by readers
initiated by srcu_read_lock_fast() and friends.
This commit does make DEFINE_SRCU_FAST() available to modules, in which
case the per-CPU srcu_data structures are not created at compile time, but
rather at module-load time. This means that the >srcu_reader_flavor field
of the srcu_data structure is not available. Therefore,
this commit instead creates an ->srcu_reader_flavor field in the
srcu_struct structure, adds arguments to the DEFINE_SRCU()-related
macros to initialize this new field, and extends the checks in the
__srcu_check_read_flavor() function to include this new field.
This commit also allows dynamically allocated srcu_struct structure
to be marked for SRCU-fast readers. It does so by defining a new
init_srcu_struct_fast() function that marks the specified srcu_struct
structure for use by srcu_read_lock_fast() and friends.

The current Tiny SRCU implementation of srcu_read_unlock() awakens
the grace-period processing when exiting the outermost SRCU read-side
critical section. However, not all Linux-kernel configurations and
contexts permit swake_up_one() to be invoked while interrupts are
disabled, and this can result in indefinitely extended SRCU grace periods.
This commit therefore only invokes swake_up_one() when interrupts are
enabled, and introduces polling to the grace-period workqueue handler.

Commit 4a74e41888 ("cgroup/cpuset: Check partition conflict with

designated by the "isolcpus" boot command line option stay either in
root partition or in isolated partitions. However, the required check
wasn't implemented when a remote partition was created or when an
existing partition changed type from "root" to "isolated".
Even though this is a relatively minor issue, we still need to add the
required prstate_housekeeping_conflict() call in the right places to
ensure that the rule is strictly followed.
The following steps can be used to reproduce the problem before this
fix.
# fmt -1 /proc/cmdline | grep isolcpus
isolcpus=9
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/
# echo +cpuset > cgroup.subtree_control
# mkdir test
# echo 9 > test/cpuset.cpus

# echo root > test/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.effective

That avoids the hassle with invocations of resume_user_mode_work() from

re-evaluation at the end of vcpu_run() a NOOP on architectures which
utilize the generic TIF space and have a separate TIF_RSEQ.
The hypervisor TIF handling does not include the separate TIF_RSEQ as there
is no point in doing so. The guest does neither know nor care about the VMM
host applications RSEQ state. That state is only relevant when the ioctl()
returns to user space.
The fastpath implementation still utilizes TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME for failure
handling, but this only happens within exit_to_user_mode_loop(), so
arguably the hypervisor ioctl() code is long done when this happens.

Now that all bits and pieces are in place, hook the RSEQ handling fast path
function into exit_to_user_mode_prepare() after the TIF work bits have been
handled. If case of fast path failure, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME has been raised
and the caller needs to take another turn through the TIF handling slow
path.
This only works for architectures which use the generic entry code.
Architectures who still have their own incomplete hacks are not supported
and won't be.
This results in the following improvements:

The 'cs cleared' and 'cs fixup' percentages are not relative to the exit to
user invocations, they are relative to the actual 'cs check' invocations.
While some of this could have been avoided in the original code, like the
obvious clearing of CS when it's already clear, the main problem of going
through TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME cannot be solved. In some workloads the RSEQ
notify handler is invoked more than once before going out to user
space. Doing this once when everything has stabilized is the only solution
to avoid this.
The initial attempt to completely decouple it from the TIF work turned out
to be suboptimal for workloads, which do a lot of quick and short system
calls. Even if the fast path decision is only 4 instructions (including a
conditional branch), this adds up quickly and becomes measurable when the
rate for actually having to handle rseq is in the low single digit
percentage range of user/kernel transitions.

Implement the actual logic for handling RSEQ updates in a fast path after
handling the TIF work and at the point where the task is actually returning
to user space.
This is the right point to do that because at this point the CPU and the MM
CID are stable and cannot longer change due to yet another reschedule.
That happens when the task is handling it via TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in
resume_user_mode_work(), which is invoked from the exit to user mode work
loop.
The function is invoked after the TIF work is handled and runs with
interrupts disabled, which means it cannot resolve page faults. It
therefore disables page faults and in case the access to the user space
memory faults, it:
- notes the fail in the event struct
- raises TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME
- returns false to the caller
The caller has to go back to the TIF work, which runs with interrupts
enabled and therefore can resolve the page faults. This happens mostly on
fork() when the memory is marked COW.
If the user memory inspection finds invalid data, the function returns
false as well and sets the fatal flag in the event struct along with
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. The slow path notify handler has to evaluate that flag
and terminate the task with SIGSEGV as documented.
The initial decision to invoke any of this is based on one flags in the
event struct: @sched_switch. The decision is in pseudo ASM:
load tsk::event::sched_switch
jnz inspect_user_space
mov $0, tsk::event::events
...
leave
So for the common case where the task was not scheduled out, this really
boils down to three instructions before going out if the compiler is not
completely stupid (and yes, some of them are).
If the condition is true, then it checks, whether CPU ID or MM CID have
changed. If so, then the CPU/MM IDs have to be updated and are thereby
cached for the next round. The update unconditionally retrieves the user
space critical section address to spare another user*begin/end() pair. If
that's not zero and tsk::event::user_irq is set, then the critical section
is analyzed and acted upon. If either zero or the entry came via syscall
the critical section analysis is skipped.
If the comparison is false then the critical section has to be analyzed
because the event flag is then only true when entry from user was by
interrupt.
This is provided without the actual hookup to let reviewers focus on the
implementation details. The hookup happens in the next step.
Note: As with quite some other optimizations this depends on the generic
entry infrastructure and is not enabled to be sucked into random
architecture implementations.

After removing the various condition bits earlier it turns out that one
extra information is needed to avoid setting event::sched_switch and
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME unconditionally on every context switch.
The update of the RSEQ user space memory is only required, when either
the task was interrupted in user space and schedules
or
the CPU or MM CID changes in schedule() independent of the entry mode
Right now only the interrupt from user information is available.
Add an event flag, which is set when the CPU or MM CID or both change.
Evaluate this event in the scheduler to decide whether the sched_switch
event and the TIF bit need to be set.
It's an extra conditional in context_switch(), but the downside of
unconditionally handling RSEQ after a context switch to user is way more
significant. The utilized boolean logic minimizes this to a single
conditional branch.

Replace the whole logic with a new implementation, which is shared with
signal delivery and the upcoming exit fast path.
Contrary to the original implementation, this ignores invocations from
KVM/IO-uring, which invoke resume_user_mode_work() with the @regs argument
set to NULL.
The original implementation updated the CPU/Node/MM CID fields, but that
was just a side effect, which was addressing the problem that this
invocation cleared TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, which in turn could cause an update
on return to user space to be lost.
This problem has been addressed differently, so that it's not longer
required to do that update before entering the guest.
That might be considered a user visible change, when the hosts thread TLS
memory is mapped into the guest, but as this was never intentionally
supported, this abuse of kernel internal implementation details is not
considered an ABI break.

Completely separate the signal delivery path from the notify handler as
they have different semantics versus the event handling.
The signal delivery only needs to ensure that the interrupted user context
was not in a critical section or the section is aborted before it switches
to the signal frame context. The signal frame context does not have the
original instruction pointer anymore, so that can't be handled on exit to
user space.
No point in updating the CPU/CID ids as they might change again before the
task returns to user space for real.

Hypervisors invoke resume_user_mode_work() before entering the guest, which
clears TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. The @regs argument is NULL as there is no user
space context available to them, so the rseq notify handler skips
inspecting the critical section, but updates the CPU/MM CID values
unconditionally so that the eventual pending rseq event is not lost on the
way to user space.
This is a pointless exercise as the task might be rescheduled before
actually returning to user space and it creates unnecessary work in the
vcpu_run() loops.
It's way more efficient to ignore that invocation based on @regs == NULL
and let the hypervisors re-raise TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME after returning from the
vcpu_run() loop before returning from the ioctl().
This ensures that a pending RSEQ update is not lost and the IDs are updated
before returning to user space.

The RSEQ critical section mechanism only clears the event mask when a
critical section is registered, otherwise it is stale and collects
bits.
That means once a critical section is installed the first invocation of
that code when TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is set will abort the critical section,
even when the TIF bit was not raised by the rseq preempt/migrate/signal
helpers.
This also has a performance implication because TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is a
multiplexing TIF bit, which is utilized by quite some infrastructure. That
means every invocation of __rseq_notify_resume() goes unconditionally
through the heavy lifting of user space access and consistency checks even
if there is no reason to do so.
Keeping the stale event mask around when exiting to user space also
prevents it from being utilized by the upcoming time slice extension
mechanism.
Avoid this by reading and clearing the event mask before doing the user
space critical section access with interrupts or preemption disabled, which
ensures that the read and clear operation is CPU local atomic versus
scheduling and the membarrier IPI.
This is correct as after re-enabling interrupts/preemption any relevant
event will set the bit again and raise TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, which makes the
user space exit code take another round of TIF bit clearing.
If the event mask was non-zero, invoke the slow path. On debug kernels the
slow path is invoked unconditionally and the result of the event mask
evaluation is handed in.
Add a exit path check after the TIF bit loop, which validates on debug
kernels that the event mask is zero before exiting to user space.
While at it reword the convoluted comment why the pt_regs pointer can be
NULL under certain circumstances.

When conditional jumps are performed on the same scalar register
(e.g., r0 <= r0, r0 > r0, r0 < r0), the BPF verifier incorrectly
attempts to adjust the register's min/max bounds. This leads to
invalid range bounds and triggers a BUG warning.
The problematic BPF program:
0: call bpf_get_prandom_u32
1: w8 = 0x80000000
2: r0 &= r8
3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit>
The instruction 3 triggers kernel warning:
3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit>

Comparing a register with itself should not change its bounds and
for most comparison operations, comparing a register with itself has
a known result (e.g., r0 == r0 is always true, r0 < r0 is always false).
Fix this by:
1. Enhance is_scalar_branch_taken() to properly handle branch direction
computation for same register comparisons across all BPF jump operations
2. Adds early return in reg_set_min_max() to avoid bounds adjustment
for unknown branch directions (e.g., BPF_JSET) on the same register
The fix ensures that unnecessary bounds adjustments are skipped, preventing
the verifier bug while maintaining correct branch direction analysis.

When livepatch is attached to the same function as bpf trampoline with
a fexit program, bpf trampoline code calls register_ftrace_direct()
twice. The first time will fail with -EAGAIN, and the second time it
will succeed. This requires register_ftrace_direct() to unregister
the address on the first attempt. Otherwise, the bpf trampoline cannot
attach. Here is an easy way to reproduce this issue:
insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.ko
bpftrace -e 'fexit:cmdline_proc_show {}'
ERROR: Unable to attach probe: fexit:vmlinux:cmdline_proc_show...
Fix this by cleaning up the hash when register_ftrace_function_nolock hits
errors.
Also, move the code that resets ops->func and ops->trampoline to the error
path of register_ftrace_direct(); and add a helper function reset_direct()
in register_ftrace_direct() and unregister_ftrace_direct().

sched_ext_free() was called from __put_task_struct() when the last reference
to the task is dropped, which could be long after the task has finished
running. This causes cgroup-related problems:
- ops.init_task() can be called on a cgroup which didn't get ops.cgroup_init()'d
during scheduler load, because the cgroup might be destroyed/unlinked
while the zombie or dead task is still lingering on the scx_tasks list.
- ops.cgroup_exit() could be called before ops.exit_task() is called on all
member tasks, leading to incorrect exit ordering.
Fix by moving it to finish_task_switch() to be called right after the final
context switch away from the dying task, matching when sched_class->task_dead()
is called. Rename it to sched_ext_dead() to match the new calling context.
By calling sched_ext_dead() before cgroup_task_dead(), we ensure that:
- Tasks visible on scx_tasks list have valid cgroups during scheduler load,
as cgroup_mutex prevents cgroup destruction while the task is still linked.
- All member tasks have ops.exit_task() called and are removed from scx_tasks
before the cgroup can be destroyed and trigger ops.cgroup_exit().
This fix is made possible by the cgroup_task_dead() split in the previous patch.
This also makes more sense resource-wise as there's no point in keeping
scheduler side resources around for dead tasks.

When a task exits, css_set_move_task(tsk, cset, NULL, false) unlinks the task
from its cgroup. From the cgroup's perspective, the task is now gone. If this
makes the cgroup empty, it can be removed, triggering ->css_offline() callbacks
that notify controllers the cgroup is going offline resource-wise.
However, the exiting task can still run, perform memory operations, and schedule
until the final context switch in finish_task_switch(). This creates a confusing
situation where controllers are told a cgroup is offline while resource
activities are still happening in it. While this hasn't broken existing
controllers, it has caused direct confusion for sched_ext schedulers.
Split cgroup_task_exit() into two functions. cgroup_task_exit() now only calls
the subsystem exit callbacks and continues to be called from do_exit(). The
css_set cleanup is moved to the new cgroup_task_dead() which is called from
finish_task_switch() after the final context switch, so that the cgroup only
appears empty after the task is truly done running.
This also reorders operations so that subsys->exit() is now called before
unlinking from the cgroup, which shouldn't break anything.

Currently, cgroup_task_exit() adds thread group leaders with live member
threads to their css_set's dying_tasks list (so cgroup.procs iteration can
still see the leader), and cgroup_task_release() later removes them with
list_del_init(&task->cg_list).
An upcoming patch will defer the dying_tasks list addition, moving it from
cgroup_task_exit() (called from do_exit()) to a new function called from
finish_task_switch(). However, release_task() (which calls
cgroup_task_release()) can run either before or after finish_task_switch(),
creating a race where cgroup_task_release() might try to remove the task from
dying_tasks before or while it's being added.
Move the list_del_init() from cgroup_task_release() to cgroup_task_free() to
fix this race. cgroup_task_free() runs from __put_task_struct(), which is
always after both paths, making the cleanup safe.

The current names cgroup_exit(), cgroup_release(), and cgroup_free() are
confusing because they look like they're operating on cgroups themselves when
they're actually task lifecycle hooks. For example, cgroup_init() initializes
the cgroup subsystem while cgroup_exit() is a task exit notification to
cgroup. Rename them to cgroup_task_exit(), cgroup_task_release(), and

Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate through
namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic interface to
discover and inspect namespaces, enhancing existing namespace apis.
Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate namespaces
in the system. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/<pid>/ns/
across all processes, which is:
1. Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes
2. Incomplete - misses inactive namespaces that aren't attached to any
running process but are kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts,
or parent namespace references
3. Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes
4. No ordering or ownership.
5. No filtering per namespace type: Must always iterate and check all
namespaces.
The list goes on. The listns() system call solves these problems by
providing direct kernel-level enumeration of namespaces. It is similar
to listmount() but obviously tailored to namespaces.
/*

Permission Model
listns() respects namespace isolation and capabilities:
(1) Global listing (user_ns_id = 0):
- Requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the namespace's owning user namespace
- OR the namespace must be in the caller's namespace context (e.g.,
a namespace the caller is currently using)
- User namespaces additionally allow listing if the caller has
CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that user namespace itself
(2) Owner-filtered listing (user_ns_id != 0):
- Requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the specified owner user namespace
- OR the namespace must be in the caller's namespace context
- This allows unprivileged processes to enumerate namespaces they own
(3) Visibility:
- Only "active" namespaces are listed
- A namespace is active if it has a non-zero __ns_ref_active count
- This includes namespaces used by running processes, held by open
file descriptors, or kept active by bind mounts
- Inactive namespaces (kept alive only by internal kernel
references) are not visible via listns()

The namespace tree doesn't express the ownership concept of namespace
appropriately. Maintain a list of directly owned namespaces per user
namespace. This will allow userspace and the kernel to use the listns()
system call to walk the namespace tree by owning user namespace. The
rbtree is used to find the relevant namespace entry point which allows
to continue iteration and the owner list can be used to walk the tree
completely lock free.

The initial set of namespace comes with fixed inode numbers making it
easy for userspace to identify them solely based on that information.
This has long preceeded anything here.
Similarly, let's assign fixed namespace ids for the initial namespaces.
Kill the cookie and use a sequentially increasing number. This has the
nice side-effect that the owning user namespace will always have a
namespace id that is smaller than any of it's descendant namespaces.

The namespace tree is, among other things, currently used to support
file handles for namespaces. When a namespace is created it is placed on
the namespace trees and when it is destroyed it is removed from the
namespace trees.
While a namespace is on the namespace trees with a valid reference count
it is possible to reopen it through a namespace file handle. This is all
fine but has some issues that should be addressed.
On current kernels a namespace is visible to userspace in the
following cases:
(1) The namespace is in use by a task.
(2) The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file
descriptor or bind-mount).
Note that (2) only cares about direct persistence of the namespace
itself not indirectly via e.g., file->f_cred file references or
similar.
(3) The namespace is a hierarchical namespace type and is the parent of
a single or multiple child namespaces.
Case (3) is interesting because it is possible that a parent namespace
might not fulfill any of (1) or (2), i.e., is invisible to userspace but
it may still be resurrected through the NS_GET_PARENT ioctl().
Currently namespace file handles allow much broader access to namespaces
than what is currently possible via (1)-(3). The reason is that
namespaces may remain pinned for completely internal reasons yet are
inaccessible to userspace.
For example, a user namespace my remain pinned by get_cred() calls to
stash the opener's credentials into file->f_cred. As it stands file
handles allow to resurrect such a users namespace even though this
should not be possible via (1)-(3). This is a fundamental uapi change
that we shouldn't do if we don't have to.
Consider the following insane case: Various architectures support the
CONFIG_MMU_LAZY_TLB_REFCOUNT option which uses lazy TLB destruction.
When this option is set a userspace task's struct mm_struct may be used
for kernel threads such as the idle task and will only be destroyed once
the cpu's runqueue switches back to another task. But because of ptrace()
permission checks struct mm_struct stashes the user namespace of the
task that struct mm_struct originally belonged to. The kernel thread
will take a reference on the struct mm_struct and thus pin it.
So on an idle system user namespaces can be persisted for arbitrary
amounts of time which also means that they can be resurrected using
namespace file handles. That makes no sense whatsoever. The problem is
of course excarabted on large systems with a huge number of cpus.
To handle this nicely we introduce an active reference count which
tracks (1)-(3). This is easy to do as all of these things are already
managed centrally. Only (1)-(3) will count towards the active reference
count and only namespaces which are active may be opened via namespace
file handles.
The problem is that namespaces may be resurrected. Which means that they
can become temporarily inactive and will be reactived some time later.
Currently the only example of this is the SIOGCSKNS socket ioctl. The
SIOCGSKNS ioctl allows to open a network namespace file descriptor based
on a socket file descriptor.
If a socket is tied to a network namespace that subsequently becomes
inactive but that socket is persisted by another process in another
network namespace (e.g., via SCM_RIGHTS of pidfd_getfd()) then the
SIOCGSKNS ioctl will resurrect this network namespace.
So calls to open_related_ns() and open_namespace() will end up
resurrecting the corresponding namespace tree.
Note that the active reference count does not regulate the lifetime of
the namespace itself. This is still done by the normal reference count.
The active reference count can only be elevated if the regular reference
count is elevated.
The active reference count also doesn't regulate the presence of a
namespace on the namespace trees. It only regulates its visiblity to
namespace file handles (and in later patches to listns()).
A namespace remains on the namespace trees from creation until its
actual destruction. This will allow the kernel to always reach any
namespace trivially and it will also enable subsystems like bpf to walk
the namespace lists on the system for tracing or general introspection
purposes.
Note that different namespaces have different visibility lifetimes on
current kernels. While most namespace are immediately released when the
last task using them exits, the user- and pid namespace are persisted
and thus both remain accessible via /proc/<pid>/ns/<ns_type>.
The user namespace lifetime is aliged with struct cred and is only
released through exit_creds(). However, it becomes inaccessible to
userspace once the last task using it is reaped, i.e., when
release_task() is called and all proc entries are flushed. Similarly,
the pid namespace is also visible until the last task using it has been
reaped and the associated pid numbers are freed.
The active reference counts of the user- and pid namespace are
decremented once the task is reaped.

cpu-clock usage by the async-profiler tool can trigger a system hang,
which got bisected back to the following commit by Octavia Togami:
18dbcbfabf ("perf: Fix the POLL_HUP delivery breakage") causes this issue
The root cause of the hang is that cpu-clock is a special type of SW
event which relies on hrtimers. The __perf_event_overflow() callback
is invoked from the hrtimer handler for cpu-clock events, and
__perf_event_overflow() tries to call cpu_clock_event_stop()
to stop the event, which calls htimer_cancel() to cancel the hrtimer.
But that's a recursion into the hrtimer code from a hrtimer handler,
which (unsurprisingly) deadlocks.
To fix this bug, use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() instead, and set
the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag, which causes perf_swevent_hrtimer()
to stop the event once it sees the PERF_HES_STOPPED flag.

Crystal reports that the PCIe Advanced Error Reporting driver gets stuck
in an infinite loop on PREEMPT_RT:
Both the primary interrupt handler aer_irq() as well as the secondary
handler aer_isr() are forced into threads with identical priority.
Crystal writes that on the ARM system in question, the primary handler
has to clear an error in the Root Error Status register...
"before the next error happens, or else the hardware will set the
Multiple ERR_COR Received bit. If that bit is set, then aer_isr()
can't rely on the Error Source Identification register, so it scans
through all devices looking for errors -- and for some reason, on
this system, accessing the AER registers (or any Config Space above
0x400, even though there are capabilities located there) generates
an Unsupported Request Error (but returns valid data). Since this
happens more than once, without aer_irq() preempting, it causes
another multi error and we get stuck in a loop."
The issue does not show on non-PREEMPT_RT because the primary handler
runs in hardirq context and thus can preempt the threaded secondary
handler, clear the Root Error Status register and prevent the secondary
handler from getting stuck.
Emulate the same behavior on PREEMPT_RT by assigning a lower default
priority to the secondary handler if the primary handler is forced into
a thread.

When a CPU from a new node boots, the old root may happen to be
connected to the new root even if their node mismatch, as depicted in
the following scenario:
1) CPU 0 boots and creates the first group for node 0.
[GRP0:0]
node 0
|
CPU 0
2) CPU 1 from node 1 boots and creates a new top that corresponds to
node 1, but it also connects the old root from node 0 to the new root
from node 1 by mistake.
[GRP1:0]
node 1
/ \
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
node 0 node 1
| |
CPU 0 CPU 1
3) This eventually leads to an imbalanced tree where some node 0 CPUs
migrate node 1 timers (and vice versa) way before reaching the
crossnode groups, resulting in more frequent remote memory accesses
than expected.
[GRP2:0]
NUMA_NO_NODE
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
node 1 node 0
/ \ |
/ \ [...]
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
node 0 node 1
| |
CPU 0... CPU 1...
A balanced tree should only contain groups having children that belong
to the same node:
[GRP2:0]
NUMA_NO_NODE
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:0]
node 0 node 1
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
[GRP0:0] [...] [...] [GRP0:1]
node 0 node 1
| |
CPU 0... CPU 1...
In order to fix this, the hierarchy must be unfolded up to the crossnode
level as soon as a node mismatch is detected. For example the stage 2
above should lead to this layout:
[GRP2:0]
NUMA_NO_NODE
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
node 0 node 1
/ \
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
node 0 node 1

This means that not only GRP1:0 must be created but also GRP1:1 and
GRP2:0 in order to prepare a balanced tree for next CPUs to boot.

3) In case of a newly created upper level, the new root and its
connections and initialization are made visible by the CPU which made
the connections. When that CPUs goes idle in the future, the new link
is published by tmigr_inactive_up() through the atomic RmW on
->migr_state.
4) If CPUs were still walking up the active hierarchy, they could observe
the new root earlier. In this case the ordering is enforced by an
early initialization of the group mask and by barriers that maintain
address dependency as explained in:
b729cc1ec2 ("timers/migration: Fix another race between hotplug and idle entry/exit")
de3ced72a7 ("timers/migration: Enforce group initialization visibility to tree walkers")
5) Timers are propagated by a chain of group locking from the bottom to
the top. And while doing so, the tree also propagates groups links
and initialization. Therefore remote expiration, which also relies
on group locking, will observe those links and initialization while
holding the root lock before walking the tree remotely and update
remote timers. This is especially important for migrators in the
active hierarchy that may observe the new root early.
Therefore the locking is unnecessary at initialization. If anything, it
just brings confusion. Remove it.

On large NUMA systems, while running a test program that saturates the
inter-processor and inter-NUMA links, acquiring the jiffies_lock can be
very expensive.
If the cpu designated to do jiffies updates (tick_do_timer_cpu) gets
delayed and other cpus decide to do the jiffies update themselves, a large
number of them decide to do so at the same time.
The inexpensive check against tick_next_period is far quicker than actually
acquiring the lock, so most of these get in line to obtain the lock. If
obtaining the lock is slow enough, this spirals into the vast majority of
CPUs continuously being stuck waiting for this lock, just to obtain it and
find out that time has already been updated by another cpu. For example, on
one random entry to kdb by manually-injected NMI, 2912 of 3840 CPUs were
observed to be stuck there.
To avoid this, allow only one non-timekeeper CPU to call
tick_do_update_jiffies64() at any given time, resetting ts->stalled jiffies
only if the jiffies update function is actually called.
With this change, manually interrupting the test at most two CPUs are
observed to invoke tick_do_update_jiffies64() - the timekeeper and one
other.

Reading /proc/irq/N/smp_affinity* races with irq_set_affinity() and
irq_move_masked_irq(), leading to old or torn output for users.
After a user writes a new CPU mask to /proc/irq/N/affinity*, the syscall
returns success, yet a subsequent read of the same file immediately returns
a value different from what was just written.
That's due to a race between show_irq_affinity() and irq_move_masked_irq()
which lets the read observe a transient, inconsistent affinity mask.
Cure it by guarding the read with irq_desc::lock.

For now, all the kernel functions who are hooked by the fprobe will be
added to the hash table "fprobe_ip_table". The key of it is the function
address, and the value of it is "struct fprobe_hlist_node".
The budget of the hash table is FPROBE_IP_TABLE_SIZE, which is 256. And
this means the overhead of the hash table lookup will grow linearly if
the count of the functions in the fprobe more than 256. When we try to
hook all the kernel functions, the overhead will be huge.
Therefore, replace the hash table with rhltable to reduce the overhead.

The number of compression/decompression threads has a direct impact on
hibernate image generation and resume latency. Using more threads can
reduce overall resume time, but on systems with fewer CPU cores it may
also introduce contention and reduce efficiency.
Performance was evaluated on an 8-core ARM system, averaged over 10 runs:
Threads Hibernate(s) Resume(s)
--------------------------------
3 12.14 18.86
4 12.28 17.48
5 11.09 16.77
6 11.08 16.44
With 5–6 threads, resume latency improves by approximately 12% compared
to the default 3-thread configuration, with negligible impact on
hibernate time.
Introduce a new kernel parameter `hibernate_compression_threads=` that
allows users and integrators to tune the number of
compression/decompression threads at boot. This provides a way to
balance performance and CPU utilization across a wide range of hardware
without recompiling the kernel.

- The 2nd one is triggered by the "Kernel panic - not syncing:

There are more than 2500 lines, at about 240kB, emitted between
the takeover and the 1st "WARNING" line in the emergency context.
This amount of pending messages had to be flushed by
nbcon_atomic_flush_pending() when WARN() printed its first line.
The atomic flush was holding the nbcon console context for too long so
that it triggered hard lockup on the CPU running the printk kthread
"pr/ttyS0". The kthread needed to reacquire the console ownership
for restoring the original serial port state in serial8250_console_write().
Prevent the hardlockup by releasing the nbcon console ownership after
each emitted record.
Note that __nbcon_atomic_flush_pending_con() used to hold the console
ownership all the time because it blocked the printk kthread. Otherwise
the kthread tried to flush the messages in parallel which caused repeated
takeovers and more replayed messages.
It is not longer a problem because the repeated takeovers are blocked
by the counter of emergency contexts, see nbcon_cpu_emergency_cnt.

In emergency contexts, printk() tries to flush messages directly even
on nbcon consoles. And it is allowed to takeover the console ownership
and interrupt the printk kthread in the middle of a message.
Only one takeover and one repeated message should be enough in most
situations. The first emergency message flushes the backlog and printk
kthreads get to sleep. Next emergency messages are flushed directly
and printk() does not wake up the kthreads.
However, the one takeover is not guaranteed. Any printk() in normal
context on another CPU could wake up the kthreads. Or a new emergency
message might be added before the kthreads get to sleep. Note that
the interrupted .write_thread() callbacks usually have to call
nbcon_reacquire_nobuf() and restore the original device setting
before checking for pending messages.
The risk of the repeated takeovers will be even bigger because
__nbcon_atomic_flush_pending_con is going to release the console
ownership after each emitted record. It will be needed to prevent
hardlockup reports on other CPUs which are busy waiting for
the context ownership, for example, by nbcon_reacquire_nobuf() or
__uart_port_nbcon_acquire().
The repeated takeovers break the output, for example:

A more robust solution is to block the printk kthread entirely whenever
*any* CPU enters an emergency context. This ensures that critical messages
can be flushed without contention from the normal, non-atomic printing
path.

BPF stream kfuncs need to be non-sleeping as they can be called from
programs running in any context, this requires a way to allocate memory
from any context. Currently, this is done by a custom per-CPU NMI-safe
bump allocation mechanism, backed by alloc_pages_nolock() and
free_pages_nolock() primitives.
As kmalloc_nolock() and kfree_nolock() primitives are available now, the
custom allocator can be removed in favor of these.

Disable propagation and unwinding of the waiter queue in case the head
waiter detects a deadlock condition, but keep it enabled in case of the
timeout fallback.
Currently, when the head waiter experiences an AA deadlock, it will
signal all its successors in the queue to exit with an error. This is
not ideal for cases where the same lock is held in contexts which can
cause errors in an unrestricted fashion (e.g., BPF programs, or kernel
paths invoked through BPF programs), and core kernel logic which is
written in a correct fashion and does not expect deadlocks.
The same reasoning can be extended to ABBA situations. Depending on the
actual runtime schedule, one or both of the head waiters involved in an
ABBA situation can detect and exit directly without terminating their
waiter queue. If the ABBA situation manifests again, the waiters will
keep exiting until progress can be made, or a timeout is triggered in
case of more complicated locking dependencies.
We still preserve the queue destruction in case of timeouts, as either
the locking dependencies are too complex to be captured by AA and ABBA
heuristics, or the owner is perpetually stuck. As such, it would be
unwise to continue to apply the timeout for each new head waiter without
terminating the queue, since we may end up waiting for more than 250 ms
in aggregate with all participants in the locking transaction.
The patch itself is fairly simple; we can simply signal our successor to
become the next head waiter, and leave the queue without attempting to
acquire the lock.
With this change, the behavior for waiters in case of deadlocks
experienced by a predecessor changes. It is guaranteed that call sites
will no longer receive errors if the predecessors encounter deadlocks
and the successors do not participate in one. This should lower the
failure rate for waiters that are not doing improper locking opreations,
just because they were unlucky to queue behind a misbehaving waiter.
However, timeouts are still a possibility, hence they must be accounted
for, so users cannot rely upon errors not occuring at all.

Allow pm_restrict_gfp_mask() to be called many times in a row to avoid
issues with calling dpm_suspend_start() when the GFP mask has been
already restricted.
Only the first invocation of pm_restrict_gfp_mask() will actually
restrict the GFP mask and the subsequent calls will warn if there is
a mismatch between the expected allowed GFP mask and the actual one.
Moreover, if pm_restrict_gfp_mask() is called many times in a row,
pm_restore_gfp_mask() needs to be called matching number of times in
a row to actually restore the GFP mask. Calling it when the GFP mask
has not been restricted will cause it to warn.
This is necessary for the GFP mask restriction starting in
hibernation_snapshot() to continue throughout the entire hibernation
flow until it completes or it is aborted (either by a wakeup event or
by an error).

The ops.cpu_acquire/release() callbacks miss events under multiple conditions.
There are two distinct task dispatch gaps that can cause cpu_released flag
desynchronization:
1. balance-to-pick_task gap: This is what was originally reported. balance_scx()
can enqueue a task, but during consume_remote_task() when the rq lock is
released, a higher priority task can be enqueued and ultimately picked while
cpu_released remains false. This gap is closeable via RETRY_TASK handling.
2. ttwu-to-pick_task gap: ttwu() can directly dispatch a task to a CPU's local
DSQ. By the time the sched path runs on the target CPU, higher class tasks may
already be queued. In such cases, nothing on sched_ext side will be invoked,
and the only solution would be a hook invoked regardless of sched class, which
isn't desirable.
Rather than adding invasive core hooks, BPF schedulers can use generic BPF
mechanisms like tracepoints. From SCX scheduler's perspective, this is congruent
with other mechanisms it already uses and doesn't add further friction.
The main use case for cpu_release() was calling scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() when
a CPU gets preempted by a higher priority scheduling class. However, the old
scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() could only be called from cpu_release() context.
Add a new version of scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() that can be called from any
context by deferring the actual re-enqueue operation. This eliminates the need
for cpu_acquire/release() ops entirely. Schedulers can now use standard BPF
mechanisms like the sched_switch tracepoint to detect and handle CPU preemption.
Update scx_qmap to demonstrate the new approach using sched_switch instead of
cpu_release, with compat support for older kernels. Mark cpu_acquire/release()
as deprecated. The old scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() variant will be removed in
v6.23.

schedule_deferred() currently requires the rq lock to be held so that it can
use scheduler hooks for efficiency when available. However, there are cases
where deferred actions need to be scheduled from contexts that don't hold the
rq lock.
Split into schedule_deferred() which can be called from any context and just
queues irq_work, and schedule_deferred_locked() which requires the rq lock and
can optimize by using scheduler hooks when available. Update the existing call
site to use the _locked variant.

Add support for deferred userspace unwind to perf.
Where perf currently relies on in-place stack unwinding; from NMI
context and all that. This moves the userspace part of the unwind to
right before the return-to-userspace.
This has two distinct benefits, the biggest is that it moves the
unwind to a faultable context. It becomes possible to fault in debug
info (.eh_frame, SFrame etc.) that might not otherwise be readily
available. And secondly, it de-duplicates the user callchain where
multiple samples happen during the same kernel entry.
To facilitate this the perf interface is extended with a new record
type:
PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED
and two new attribute flags:
perf_event_attr::defer_callchain - to request the user unwind be deferred
perf_event_attr::defer_output - to request PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records
The existing PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE callchain section gets a new
context type:
PERF_CONTEXT_USER_DEFERRED
After which will come a single entry, denoting the 'cookie' of the
deferred callchain that should be attached here, matching the 'cookie'
field of the above mentioned PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED.
The 'defer_callchain' flag is expected on all events with
PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN. The 'defer_output' flag is expect on the event
responsible for collecting side-band events (like mmap, comm etc.).
Setting 'defer_output' on multiple events will get you duplicated
PERF_RECORD_CALLCHAIN_DEFERRED records.

Add some logic to give the openat system call trace event a bit more human
readable information:
syscalls:sys_enter_openat: dfd: 0xffffff9c, filename: 0x7f0053dc121c "/etc/ld.so.cache", flags: O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC, mode: 0000
The above is output from "perf script" and now shows the flags used by the
openat system call.
Since the output from tracing is in the kernel, it can also remove the
mode field when not used (when flags does not contain O_CREATE|O_TMPFILE)
touch-1185 [002] ...1. 1291.690154: sys_openat(dfd: 4294967196, filename: 139785545139344 "/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", flags: O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC)

As system calls have a fixed ABI, their trace events can be extended. This
currently only updates the openat system call, but others may be extended
in the future.

When a system call that can copy user space addresses into the ring
buffer, it can copy up to 511 bytes of data. This can waste precious ring
buffer space if the user isn't interested in the output. Add a new file
"syscall_user_buf_size" that gets initialized to a new config
CONFIG_SYSCALL_BUF_SIZE_DEFAULT that defaults to 63.
The config also is used to limit how much perf can read from user space.
Also lower the max down to 165, as this isn't to record everything that a
system call may be passing through to the kernel. 165 is more than enough.
The reason for 165 is because adding one for the nul terminating byte, as
well as possibly needing to append the "..." string turns it into 170
bytes. As this needs to save up to 3 arguments and 3 * 170 is 510 which
fits nicely in 512 bytes (a power of 2).

Allow more than one field of a syscall trace event to read user space.
Build on top of the user_mask by allowing more than one bit to be set that
corresponds to the @args array of the syscall metadata. For each argument
in the @args array that is to be read, it will have a dynamic array/string
field associated to it.
Note that multiple fields to be read from user space is not supported if
the user_arg_size field is set in the syscall metada. That field can only
be used if only one field is being read from user space as that field is a
number representing the size field of the syscall event that holds the
size of the data to read from user space. It becomes ambiguous if the
system call reads more than one field. Currently this is not an issue.
If a syscall event happens to enable two events to read user space and
sets the user_arg_size field, it will trigger a warning at boot and the
user_arg_size field will be cleared.
The per CPU buffer that is used to read the user space addresses is now
broken up into 3 sections, each of 168 bytes. The reason for 168 is that
it is the biggest portion of 512 bytes divided by 3 that is 8 byte aligned.
The max amount copied into the ring buffer from user space is now only 128
bytes, which is plenty. When reading user space, it still reads 167
(168-1) bytes and uses the remaining to know if it should append the extra
"..." to the end or not.
This will allow the event to look like this:
sys_renameat2(olddfd: 0xffffff9c, oldname: 0x7ffe02facdff "/tmp/x", newdfd: 0xffffff9c, newname: 0x7ffe02face06 "/tmp/y", flags: 1)

Some of the system calls that read a fixed length of memory from the user
space address are not arrays but strings. Take a bit away from the nb_args
field in the syscall meta data to use as a flag to denote that the system
call's user_arg_size is being used as a string. The nb_args should never
be more than 6, so 7 bits is plenty to hold that number. When the
user_arg_is_str flag that, when set, will display the data array from the
user space address as a string and not an array.
This will allow the output to look like this:

For system call events that have a length field, add a "user_arg_size"
parameter to the system call meta data that denotes the index of the args
array that holds the size of arg that the user_mask field has a bit set
for.
The "user_mask" has a bit set that denotes the arg that points to an array
in the user space address space and if a system call event has the
user_mask field set and the user_arg_size set, it will then record the
content of that address into the trace event, up to the size defined by

Use guard(mutex)(&syscall_trace_lock) for perf_sysenter_enable() and
perf_sysenter_disable() as well as for the perf_sysexit_enable() and

As of commit 654ced4a13 ("tracing: Introduce tracepoint_is_faultable()")
system call trace events allow faulting in user space memory. Have some of
the system call trace events take advantage of this.
Use the trace_user_fault_read() logic to read the user space buffer from
user space and instead of just saving the pointer to the buffer in the
system call event, also save the string that is passed in.
The syscall event has its nb_args shorten from an int to a short (where
even u8 is plenty big enough) and the freed two bytes are used for
"user_mask". The new "user_mask" field is used to store the index of the
"args" field array that has the address to read from user space. This
value is set to 0 if the system call event does not need to read user
space for a field. This mask can be used to know if the event may fault or
not. Only one bit set in user_mask is supported at this time.
This allows the output to look like this:
sys_access(filename: 0x7f8c55368470 "/etc/ld.so.preload", mode: 4)
sys_execve(filename: 0x564ebcf5a6b8 "/usr/bin/emacs", argv: 0x7fff357c0300, envp: 0x564ebc4a4820)

The write to the trace_marker file is a critical section where it cannot
take locks nor allocate memory. To read from user space, it allocates a per
CPU buffer when the trace_marker file is opened, and then when the write
system call is performed, it uses the following method to read from user
space:
preempt_disable();
buffer = per_cpu_ptr(cpu_buffers, cpu);
do {
cnt = nr_context_switches_cpu();
migrate_disable();
preempt_enable();
ret = copy_from_user(buffer, ptr, len);
preempt_disable();
migrate_enable();
} while (!ret && cnt != nr_context_switches_cpu());
if (!ret)
ring_buffer_write(buffer);
preempt_enable();
It records the number of context switches for the current CPU, enables
preemption, copies from user space, disable preemption and then checks if
the number of context switches changed. If it did not, then the buffer is
valid, otherwise the buffer may have been corrupted and the read from user
space must be tried again.
The system call trace events are now faultable and have the same
restrictions as the trace_marker write. For system calls to read the user
space buffer (for example to read the file of the openat system call), it
needs the same logic. Instead of copying the code over to the system call
trace events, make the code generic to allow the system call trace events to
use the same code. The following API is added internally to the tracing sub
system (these are only exposed within the tracing subsystem and not to be
used outside of it):
trace_user_fault_init() - initializes a trace_user_buf_info descriptor
that will allocate the per CPU buffers to copy from user space into.
trace_user_fault_destroy() - used to free the allocations made by
trace_user_fault_init().
trace_user_fault_get() - update the ref count of the info descriptor to
allow more than one user to use the same descriptor.
trace_user_fault_put() - decrement the ref count.
trace_user_fault_read() - performs the above action to read user space
into the per CPU buffer. The preempt_disable() is expected before
calling this function and preemption must remain disabled while the
buffer returned is in use.

ddf7233fca ("sched/ext: Fix invalid task state transitions on class

switching loop. The reason for the addition was to avoid enabling tasks which
skipped prep in the previous loop due to being dead.
While tryget_task_struct() does work for this purpose as tasks that fail
tryget always will fail it, it's a bit roundabout. A more direct way is
testing whether the task is in READY state. Switch to testing SCX_TASK_READY

Commit abfc01077d ("sched: Fix do_set_cpus_allowed() locking")
overlooked that __balance_push_cpu_stop() calls select_fallback_rq()
with rq->lock held. This makes that set_cpus_allowed_force() will
recursively take rq->lock and the machine locks up.
Run select_fallback_rq() earlier, without holding rq->lock. This opens
up a race window where a task could get migrated out from under us, but
that is harmless, we want the task migrated.
select_fallback_rq() itself will not be subject to concurrency as it
will be fully serialized by p->pi_lock, so there is no chance of
set_cpus_allowed_force() getting called with different arguments and
selecting different fallback CPUs for one task.

The ftrace blktrace path allocates buffers and writes trace events but
was using the wrong recording function. After
commit 4d8bc7bd4f ("blktrace: move ftrace blk_io_tracer to blk_io_trace2"),
the ftrace interface was moved to use blk_io_trace2 format, but
__blk_add_trace() still called record_blktrace_event() which writes in
blk_io_trace (v1) format.
This causes critical data corruption:
- blk_io_trace (v1) has 32-bit 'action' field at offset 28
- blk_io_trace2 (v2) has 32-bit 'pid' at offset 28 and 64-bit 'action'
at offset 32
- When record_blktrace_event() writes to a v2 buffer:
* Writing pid (offset 32 in v1) corrupts the v2 action field
* Writing action (offset 28 in v1) corrupts the v2 pid field
* The 64-bit action is truncated to 32-bit via lower_32_bits()
Fix by:
1. Adding version switch to select correct format (v1 vs v2)
2. Calling appropriate recording function based on version
3. Defaulting to v2 for ftrace (as intended by commit 4d8bc7bd4f)
4. Adding WARN_ONCE for unexpected version values
Without this patch :-

- But called record_blktrace_event() (writes v1, 48 bytes)
- Field offsets don't match, causing corruption

The WARN_ON_ONCE introduced in
commit f9ee38bbf7 ("blktrace: add block trace commands for zone operations")
triggers kernel warnings when zone operations are traced with blktrace
version 1. This can spam the kernel log during normal operation with
zoned block devices when userspace is using the legacy blktrace
protocol.
Currently blktrace implementation drops newly added REQ_OP_ZONE_XXX
when blktrace userspce version is set to 1.
Remove the WARN_ON_ONCE and quietly filter these events. Add a
rate-limited debug message to help diagnose potential issues without
flooding the kernel log. The debug message can be enabled via dynamic
debug when needed for troubleshooting.
This approach is more appropriate as encountering zone operations with
blktrace v1 is an expected condition that should be handled gracefully
rather than warned about, since users may be running older blktrace
userspace tools that only support version 1 of the protocol.

Dynptr currently caps size and offset at 24 bits, which isn’t sufficient
for file-backed use cases; even 32 bits can be limiting. Refactor dynptr
helpers/kfuncs to use 64-bit size and offset, ensuring consistency
across the APIs.
This change does not affect internals of xdp, skb or other dynptrs,
which continue to behave as before. Also it does not break binary
compatibility.
The widening enables large-file access support via dynptr, implemented

Interrupt sharing for percpu-devid interrupts is forbidden, and for good
reasons. These are interrupts generated *from* a CPU and handled by itself
(timer, for example). Nobody in their right mind would put two devices on
the same pin (and if they have, they get to keep the pieces...).
But this also prevents more benign cases, where devices are connected
to groups of CPUs, and for which the affinities are not overlapping.
Effectively, the only thing they share is the interrupt number, and
nothing else.
Tweak the definition of IRQF_SHARED applied to percpu_devid interrupts to
allow this particular use case. This results in extra validation at the
point of the interrupt being setup and freed, as well as a tiny bit of
extra complexity for interrupts at handling time (to pick the correct
irqaction).

Add an affinity field to both the irqaction structure and the interrupt
request primitives. Nothing is making use of it yet, and the only value
used it NULL, which is used as a shorthand for cpu_possible_mask.
This will shortly get used with actual affinities.

Move the code creating a per-cpu irqaction into its own helper, so that
future changes to this code can be kept localised.
At the same time, fix the documentation which appears to say the wrong
thing when it comes to interrupts being automatically enabled
(percpu_devid interrupts never are).

Add an irqdomain callback to report firmware-provided information that is
otherwise not available in a generic way. This is reported using a new data
structure (struct irq_fwspec_info).
This callback is optional and the only information that can be reported
currently is the affinity of an interrupt. However, the containing
structure is designed to be extensible, allowing other potentially relevant
information to be reported in the future.

Initially moved out into its own non-const array in commit 9ec272c586
("watchdog/hardlockup: keep kernel.nmi_watchdog sysctl as 0444 if probe

Function kdb_msg_write was calling con->write for any found console,
but it won't work on NBCON consoles. In this case we should acquire the
ownership of the console using NBCON_PRIO_EMERGENCY, since printing
kdb messages should only be interrupted by a panic.
At this point, the console is required to use the atomic callback. The
console is skipped if the write_atomic callback is not set or if the
context could not be acquired. The validation of NBCON is done by the
console_is_usable helper. The context is released right after
write_atomic finishes.
The oops_in_progress handling is only needed in the legacy consoles,
so it was moved around the con->write callback.

KDB can interrupt any console to execute the "mirrored printing" at any
time, so add an exception to nbcon_context_try_acquire_direct to allow
to get the context if the current CPU is the same as kdb_printf_cpu.
This change will be necessary for the next patch, which fixes
kdb_msg_write to work with NBCON consoles by calling ->write_atomic on
such consoles. But to print it first needs to acquire the ownership of
the console, so nbcon_context_try_acquire_direct is fixed here.

as nbcon_device_try_acquire, but using NBCON_PRIO_EMERGENCY when

If the acquire succeeds, the message and message length are assigned to
nbcon_write_context so ->write_atomic can print the message.
After release try to flush the console since there may be a backlog of
messages in the ringbuffer. The kthread console printers do not get a
chance to run while kdb is active.

The legacy printer kthread uses console_lock and
__console_flush_and_unlock to flush records to the console. This
approach results in the console_lock being held for the entire
duration of a flush. This can result in large waiting times for
those waiting for console_lock especially where there is a large
volume of records or where the console is slow (e.g. serial). This
contention is observed during boot, as the call to filp_open in
console_on_rootfs will delay progression to userspace until any
in-flight flush is completed.
Let's instead use console_flush_one_record and release/reacquire
the console_lock between records.

console_flush_one_record() and console_flush_all() duplicate several
checks. They both want to tell the caller that consoles are not
longer usable in this context because it has lost the lock or
the lock has to be reserved for the panic CPU.
Remove the duplication by changing the semantic of the function
console_flush_one_record() return value and parameters.
The function will return true when it is able to do the job. It means
that there is at least one usable console. And the flushing was
not interrupted by a takeover or panic_on_other_cpu().
Also replace the @any_usable parameter with @try_again. The @try_again
parameter will be set to true when the function could do the job
and at least one console made a progress.
Motivation:
The callers need to know when
+ they should continue flushing => @try_again
+ when the console is flushed => can_do_the_job(return) && !@try_again
+ when @next_seq is valid => same as flushed
+ when lost console_lock => @takeover
The proposed change makes it clear when the function can do
the job. It simplifies the answer for the other questions.
Also the return value from console_flush_one_record() can
be used as return value from console_flush_all().

console_flush_all prints all remaining records to all usable consoles
whilst its caller holds console_lock. This can result in large waiting
times for those waiting for console_lock especially where there is a
large volume of records or where the console is slow (e.g. serial).
Let's extract the parts of this function which print a single record
into a new function named console_flush_one_record. This can later
be used for functions that will release and reacquire console_lock
between records.
This commit should not change existing functionality.

The pnt_seq field and related infrastructure were originally named for
"pick next task sequence", reflecting their original implementation in
scx_next_task_picked(). However, the sequence counter is now incremented in
both put_prev_task_scx() and pick_task_scx() and its purpose is to
synchronize kick operations via SCX_KICK_WAIT, not specifically to track
pick_next_task events.
Rename to better reflect the actual semantics:
- pnt_seq -> kick_sync
- scx_kick_pseqs -> scx_kick_syncs
- pseqs variables -> ksyncs
- Update comments to refer to "kick_sync sequence" instead of "pick_task
sequence"
This is a pure renaming with no functional changes.

SCX_KICK_WAIT is used to synchronously wait for the target CPU to complete
a reschedule and can be used to implement operations like core scheduling.
This used to be implemented by scx_next_task_picked() incrementing pnt_seq,
which was always called when a CPU picks the next task to run, allowing
SCX_KICK_WAIT to reliably wait for the target CPU to enter the scheduler and
pick the next task.
However, commit b999e365c2 ("sched_ext: Replace scx_next_task_picked()
with switch_class()") replaced scx_next_task_picked() with the
switch_class() callback, which is only called when switching between sched
classes. This broke SCX_KICK_WAIT because pnt_seq would no longer be
reliably incremented unless the previous task was SCX and the next task was
not.
This fix leverages commit 4c95380701 ("sched/ext: Fold balance_scx() into
pick_task_scx()") which refactored the pick path making put_prev_task_scx()
the natural place to track task switches for SCX_KICK_WAIT. The fix moves
pnt_seq increment to put_prev_task_scx() and also increments it in
pick_task_scx() to handle cases where the same task is re-selected, whether
by BPF scheduler decision or slice refill. The semantics: If the current
task on the target CPU is SCX, SCX_KICK_WAIT waits until the CPU enters the
scheduling path. This provides sufficient guarantee for use cases like core
scheduling while keeping the operation self-contained within SCX.
v2: - Also increment pnt_seq in pick_task_scx() to handle same-task
re-selection (Andrea Righi).
- Use smp_cond_load_acquire() for the busy-wait loop for better
architecture optimization (Peter Zijlstra).

Matteo reported hitting the assert_list_leaf_cfs_rq() warning from
enqueue_task_fair() post commit fe8d238e64 ("sched/fair: Propagate
load for throttled cfs_rq") which transitioned to using
cfs_rq_pelt_clock_throttled() check for leaf cfs_rq insertions in
propagate_entity_cfs_rq().
The "cfs_rq->pelt_clock_throttled" flag is used to indicate if the
hierarchy has its PELT frozen. If a cfs_rq's PELT is marked frozen, all
its descendants should have their PELT frozen too or weird things can
happen as a result of children accumulating PELT signals when the
parents have their PELT clock stopped.
Another side effect of this is the loss of integrity of the leaf cfs_rq
list. As debugged by Aaron, consider the following hierarchy:
root(#)
/ \
A(#) B(*)
|
C <--- new cgroup
|
D <--- new cgroup
# - Already on leaf cfs_rq list
* - Throttled with PELT frozen
The newly created cgroups don't have their "pelt_clock_throttled" signal
synced with cgroup B. Next, the following series of events occur:
1. online_fair_sched_group() for cgroup D will call
propagate_entity_cfs_rq(). (Same can happen if a throttled task is
moved to cgroup C and enqueue_task_fair() returns early.)
propagate_entity_cfs_rq() adds the cfs_rq of cgroup C to
"rq->tmp_alone_branch" since its PELT clock is not marked throttled
and cfs_rq of cgroup B is not on the list.
cfs_rq of cgroup B is skipped since its PELT is throttled.
root cfs_rq already exists on cfs_rq leading to
list_add_leaf_cfs_rq() returning early.
The cfs_rq of cgroup C is left dangling on the
"rq->tmp_alone_branch".
2. A new task wakes up on cgroup A. Since the whole hierarchy is already
on the leaf cfs_rq list, list_add_leaf_cfs_rq() keeps returning early
without any modifications to "rq->tmp_alone_branch".
The final assert_list_leaf_cfs_rq() in enqueue_task_fair() sees the
dangling reference to cgroup C's cfs_rq in "rq->tmp_alone_branch".
!!! Splat !!!
Syncing the "pelt_clock_throttled" indicator with parent cfs_rq is not
enough since the new cfs_rq is not yet enqueued on the hierarchy. A
dequeue on other subtree on the throttled hierarchy can freeze the PELT
clock for the parent hierarchy without setting the indicators for this
newly added cfs_rq which was never enqueued.
Since there are no tasks on the new hierarchy, start a cfs_rq on a
throttled hierarchy with its PELT clock throttled. The first enqueue, or
the distribution (whichever happens first) will unfreeze the PELT clock
and queue the cfs_rq on the leaf cfs_rq list.
While at it, add an assert_list_leaf_cfs_rq() in
propagate_entity_cfs_rq() to catch such cases in the future.

cded46d971 ("sched_ext: Make scx_bpf_dsq_insert*() return bool")
introduced a new bool-returning scx_bpf_dsq_insert() and renamed the old
void-returning version to scx_bpf_dsq_insert___compat, with the expectation
that libbpf would match old binaries to the ___compat variant, maintaining
backward binary compatibility. However, while libbpf ignores ___suffix on
the BPF side when matching symbols, it doesn't do so for kernel-side symbols.
Old binaries compiled with the original scx_bpf_dsq_insert() could no longer
resolve the symbol.
Fix by reversing the naming: Keep scx_bpf_dsq_insert() as the old
void-returning interface and add ___v2 to the new bool-returning version.
This allows old binaries to continue working while new code can use the
___v2 variant. Once libbpf is updated to ignore kernel-side ___SUFFIX, the
___v2 suffix can be dropped when the compat interface is removed.
v2: Use ___v2 instead of ___new.

propagate_to_outer_instance() calls get_outer_instance() and uses the
returned pointer to reset and commit stack write marks. Under normal
conditions, update_instance() guarantees that an outer instance exists,
so get_outer_instance() cannot return an ERR_PTR.
However, explicitly checking for IS_ERR(outer_instance) makes this code
more robust and self-documenting. It reduces cognitive load when reading
the control flow and silences potential false-positive reports from
static analysis or automated tooling.
No functional change intended.

The messages printed by swsusp_save() are basically only useful for
debug, so printing them every time a hibernation image is created at
the "info" log level is not particularly useful. Also printing a
message on a failing memory allocation is redundant.
Use pm_deferred_pr_dbg() for printing those messages so they will only
be printed when requested and the "deferred" variant is used because
this code runs in a deeply atomic context (one CPU with interrupts
off, no functional devices). Also drop the useless message printed
when memory allocations fails.
While at it, extend one of the messages in question so it is less
cryptic.

The loop in tk_aux_sysfs_init() uses `i <= MAX_AUX_CLOCKS` as the
termination condition, which results in 9 iterations (i=0 to 8) when
MAX_AUX_CLOCKS is defined as 8. However, the kernel is designed to support
only up to 8 auxiliary clocks.
This off-by-one error causes the creation of a 9th sysfs entry that exceeds
the intended auxiliary clock range.
Fix the loop bound to use `i < MAX_AUX_CLOCKS` to ensure exactly 8
auxiliary clock entries are created, matching the design specification.

The vma->vm_mm might be NULL and it can be accessed outside of RCU. Thus,
we can mark it as trusted_or_null. With this change, BPF helpers can safely
access vma->vm_mm to retrieve the associated mm_struct from the VMA.
Then we can make policy decision from the VMA.
The "trusted" annotation enables direct access to vma->vm_mm within kfuncs
marked with KF_TRUSTED_ARGS or KF_RCU, such as bpf_task_get_cgroup1() and
bpf_task_under_cgroup(). Conversely, "null" enforcement requires all
callsites using vma->vm_mm to perform NULL checks.
The lsm selftest must be modified because it directly accesses vma->vm_mm
without a NULL pointer check; otherwise it will break due to this
change.
For the VMA based THP policy, the use case is as follows,
@mm = @vma->vm_mm; // vm_area_struct::vm_mm is trusted or null
if (!@mm)
return;
bpf_rcu_read_lock(); // rcu lock must be held to dereference the owner
@owner = @mm->owner; // mm_struct::owner is rcu trusted or null
if (!@owner)
goto out;
@cgroup1 = bpf_task_get_cgroup1(@owner, MEMCG_HIERARCHY_ID);
/* make the decision based on the @cgroup1 attribute */
bpf_cgroup_release(@cgroup1); // release the associated cgroup
out:
bpf_rcu_read_unlock();
PSI memory information can be obtained from the associated cgroup to inform
policy decisions. Since upstream PSI support is currently limited to cgroup
v2, the following example demonstrates cgroup v2 implementation:
@owner = @mm->owner;
if (@owner) {
// @ancestor_cgid is user-configured
@ancestor = bpf_cgroup_from_id(@ancestor_cgid);
if (bpf_task_under_cgroup(@owner, @ancestor)) {
@psi_group = @ancestor->psi;
/* Extract PSI metrics from @psi_group and
* implement policy logic based on the values
*/
}
}
The vma::vm_file can also be marked with __safe_trusted_or_null.
No additional selftests are required since vma->vm_file and vma->vm_mm are
already validated in the existing selftest suite.

The pm_vt_switch_required() function fails silently when memory
allocation fails, offering no indication to callers that the operation
was unsuccessful. This behavior prevents drivers from handling allocation
errors correctly or implementing retry mechanisms. By ensuring that
failures are reported back to the caller, drivers can make informed
decisions, improve robustness, and avoid unexpected behavior during
critical power management operations.
Change the function signature to return an integer error code and modify
the implementation to return -ENOMEM when kmalloc() fails. Update both
the function declaration and the inline stub in include/linux/pm.h to
maintain consistency across CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE_SLEEP configurations.
The function now returns:
- 0 on success (including when updating existing entries)
- -ENOMEM when memory allocation fails
This change improves error reporting without breaking existing callers,
as the current callers in drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c already
ignore the return value, making this a backward-compatible improvement.

will change slightly. SCHED_DEADLINE is affected by this change in
location:
OLD NEW

Notably, where switched_from() was called *after* the change to the

uses dl_task(p) which uses p->prio; which is changed when switching
class (it might be the reason to switch class in case of PI).
When switched_from_dl() gets called, the task will have left the
deadline class and dl_task() must be false, while when doing
dequeue_dl_entity() the task must be a dl_task(), otherwise we'd have
called a different dequeue method.

Load imbalance is observed when the workload frequently forks new threads.
Due to CPU affinity, the workload can run on CPU 0-7 in the first
group, and only on CPU 8-11 in the second group. CPU 12-15 are always idle.
{ 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 } {8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15}
* * * * * * * * * * * *
When looking for dst group for newly forked threads, in many times
update_sg_wakeup_stats() reports the second group has more idle CPUs
than the first group. The scheduler thinks the second group is less
busy. Then it selects least busy CPUs among CPU 8-11. Therefore CPU 8-11
can be crowded with newly forked threads, at the same time CPU 0-7
can be idle.
A task may not use all the CPUs in a schedule group due to CPU affinity.
Only update schedule group statistics for allowed CPUs.

Keep actual NUMA distances separately if modified distances

are still needed as NUMA balancing benefits from finding the
NUMA nodes that are actually closer to a task numa_group.
Consolidate the recording of unique NUMA distances in an array to

distances when the NUMA distance metric is changed.

Commit 16b269436b ("sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpus
to reflect rd->online") introduced the cpudl_set/clear_freecpu
functions to allow the cpu_dl::free_cpus mask to be manipulated
by the deadline scheduler class rq_on/offline callbacks so the
mask would also reflect this state.
Commit 9659e1eeee ("sched/deadline: Remove cpu_active_mask
from cpudl_find()") removed the check of the cpu_active_mask to
save some processing on the premise that the cpudl::free_cpus
mask already reflected the runqueue online state.
Unfortunately, there are cases where it is possible for the
cpudl_clear function to set the free_cpus bit for a CPU when the
deadline runqueue is offline. When this occurs while a CPU is
connected to the default root domain the flag may retain the bad
state after the CPU has been unplugged. Later, a different CPU
that is transitioning through the default root domain may push a
deadline task to the powered down CPU when cpudl_find sees its
free_cpus bit is set. If this happens the task will not have the
opportunity to run.
One example is outlined here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250110233010.2339521-1-opendmb@gmail.com
Another occurs when the last deadline task is migrated from a
CPU that has an offlined runqueue. The dequeue_task member of
the deadline scheduler class will eventually call cpudl_clear
and set the free_cpus bit for the CPU.
This commit modifies the cpudl_clear function to be aware of the
online state of the deadline runqueue so that the free_cpus mask
can be updated appropriately.
It is no longer necessary to manage the mask outside of the
cpudl_set/clear functions so the cpudl_set/clear_freecpu
functions are removed. In addition, since the free_cpus mask is
now only updated under the cpudl lock the code was changed to
use the non-atomic __cpumask functions.

If a task yields, the scheduler may decide to pick it again. The task in
turn may decide to yield immediately or shortly after, leading to a tight
loop of yields.
If there's another runnable task as this point, the deadline will be
increased by the slice at each loop. This can cause the deadline to runaway
pretty quickly, and subsequent elevated run delays later on as the task
doesn't get picked again. The reason the scheduler can pick the same task
again and again despite its deadline increasing is because it may be the
only eligible task at that point.
Fix this by making the task forfeiting its remaining vruntime and pushing
the deadline one slice ahead. This implements yield behavior more
authentically.
We limit the forfeiting to eligible tasks. This is because core scheduling
prefers running ineligible tasks rather than force idling. As such, without
the condition, we can end up on a yield loop which makes the vruntime
increase rapidly, leading to anomalous run delays later down the line.

Commit 370645f41e ("dma-mapping: force bouncing if the kmalloc() size is
not cache-line-aligned") introduced DMA_BOUNCE_UNALIGNED_KMALLOC feature
and permitted architecture specific code configure kmalloc slabs with
sizes smaller than the value of dma_get_cache_alignment().
When that feature is enabled, the physical address of some small
kmalloc()-ed buffers might be not aligned to the CPU cachelines, thus not
really suitable for typical DMA. To properly handle that case a SWIOTLB
buffer bouncing is used, so no CPU cache corruption occurs. When that
happens, there is no point reporting a false-positive DMA-API warning that
the buffer is not properly aligned, as this is not a client driver fault.

The builtin DSQ queue data structures are meant to be used by a wide
range of different sched_ext schedulers with different demands on these
data structures. They might be per-cpu with low-contention, or
high-contention shared queues. Unfortunately, DSQs have a coarse-grained
lock around the whole data structure. Without going all the way to a
lock-free, more scalable implementation, a small step we can take to
reduce lock contention is to allow a lockless, small-fixed-cost peek at
the head of the queue.
This change allows certain custom SCX schedulers to cheaply peek at
queues, e.g. during load balancing, before locking them. But it
represents a few extra memory operations to update the pointer each
time the DSQ is modified, including a memory barrier on ARM so the write
appears correctly ordered.
This commit adds a first_task pointer field which is updated
atomically when the DSQ is modified, and allows any thread to peek at
the head of the queue without holding the lock.

When there is only one function of the same name, old_sympos of 0 and 1
are logically identical. Match them in klp_find_func().
This is to avoid a corner case with different toolchain behavior.
In this specific issue, two versions of kpatch-build were used to
build livepatch for the same kernel. One assigns old_sympos == 0 for
unique local functions, the other assigns old_sympos == 1 for unique
local functions. Both versions work fine by themselves. (PS: This
behavior change was introduced in a downstream version of kpatch-build.
This change does not exist in upstream kpatch-build.)
However, during livepatch upgrade (with the replace flag set) from a
patch built with one version of kpatch-build to the same fix built with
the other version of kpatch-build, livepatching fails with errors like:

happens due to the combination of features and fixes, but mainly due to
commit 6d78b4473c ("bpf: Tell memcg to use allow_spinning=false path in bpf_timer_init()")
It's using __GFP_HIGH, which instructs slub/kmemleak internals to skip
kmemleak_alloc_recursive() on allocation, so subsequent kfree_rcu()->
kvfree_call_rcu()->kmemleak_ignore() complains with the above splat.
To fix this imbalance, replace bpf_map_kmalloc_node() with
kmalloc_nolock() and kfree_rcu() with call_rcu() + kfree_nolock() to
make sure that the objects allocated with kmalloc_nolock() are freed
with kfree_nolock() rather than the implicit kfree() that kfree_rcu()
uses internally.
Note, the kmalloc_nolock() happens under bpf_spin_lock_irqsave(), so
it will always fail in PREEMPT_RT. This is not an issue at the moment,
since bpf_timers are disabled in PREEMPT_RT. In the future
bpf_spin_lock will be replaced with state machine similar to
bpf_task_work.

Add a new klp diff subcommand which performs a binary diff between two
object files and extracts changed functions into a new object which can
then be linked into a livepatch module.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch [1]
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to generate
livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a complete
rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+ years of
maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for symbol/section/reloc
inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines script
(coming in a later patch) which injects #line directives into the
source .patch to preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
Note the end result of this subcommand is not yet functionally complete.
Livepatch needs some ELF magic which linkers don't like:
- Two relocation sections (.rela*, .klp.rela*) for the same text
section.
- Use of SHN_LIVEPATCH to mark livepatch symbols.
Unfortunately linkers tend to mangle such things. To work around that,
klp diff generates a linker-compliant intermediate binary which encodes
the relevant KLP section/reloc/symbol metadata.
After module linking, a klp post-link step (coming soon) will clean up
the mess and convert the linked .ko into a fully compliant livepatch
module.
Note this subcommand requires the diffed binaries to have been compiled
with -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, and processed with
'objtool --checksum'. Those constraints will be handled by a klp-build
script introduced in a later patch.
Without '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections', reliable object diffing
would be infeasible due to toolchain limitations:
- For intra-file+intra-section references, the compiler might
occasionally generated hard-coded instruction offsets instead of
relocations.
- Section-symbol-based references can be ambiguous:
- Overlapping or zero-length symbols create ambiguity as to which
symbol is being referenced.
- A reference to the end of a symbol (e.g., checking array bounds)
can be misinterpreted as a reference to the next symbol, or vice
versa.
A potential future alternative to '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections'
would be to introduce a toolchain option that forces symbol-based
(non-section) relocations.

Some file systems like FUSE-based ones or overlayfs may record the backing
file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file, instead of the user file that the
user mmapped.
That causes perf to misreport the device major/minor numbers of the file
system of the file, and the generation of the file, and potentially other
inode details. There is an existing helper file_user_inode() for that
situation.
Use file_user_inode() instead of file_inode() to get the inode for MMAP2
events.

With respect to stable kernels, overlayfs mmap function ovl_mmap() was
added in v4.19 but file_user_inode() was not added until v6.8 and never
back-ported to stable kernels. FMODE_BACKING that it depends on was added
in v6.5. This issue has gone largely unnoticed, so back-porting before
v6.8 is probably not worth it, so put 6.8 as the stable kernel prerequisite
version, although in practice the next long term kernel is 6.12.

Some file systems like FUSE-based ones or overlayfs may record the backing
file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file, instead of the user file that the
user mmapped.
Since commit def3ae83da ("fs: store real path instead of fake path in
backing file f_path"), file_path() no longer returns the user file path
when applied to a backing file. There is an existing helper
file_user_path() for that situation.
Use file_user_path() instead of file_path() to get the path for MMAP
and MMAP2 events.
Example:
Setup:
# cd /root
# mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
# cp `which cat` lower
# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
# perf record -e intel_pt//u -- /root/test/merged/cat /proc/self/maps
...

...
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.060 MB perf.data ]
#
Before:
File name is wrong (/cat), so decoding fails:
# perf script --no-itrace --show-mmap-events
cat 367 [016] 100.491492: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 367/367: [0x55b0ba399000(0x9b000) @ 0x18000 00:02 3419 489959280]: r-xp /cat

It was reported that Intel PT address filters do not work in Docker
containers. That relates to the use of overlayfs.
overlayfs records the backing file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file,
instead of the user file that the user mmapped. In order for an address
filter to match, it must compare to the user file inode. There is an
existing helper file_user_inode() for that situation.
Use file_user_inode() instead of file_inode() to get the inode for address
filter matching.
Example:
Setup:
# cd /root
# mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
# cp `which cat` lower
# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
# perf record --buildid-mmap -e intel_pt//u --filter 'filter * @ /root/test/merged/cat' -- /root/test/merged/cat /proc/self/maps

[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.015 MB perf.data ]
# perf buildid-cache --add /root/test/merged/cat

# perf script --itrace=e
# perf script --itrace=b | wc -l

# perf script -D | grep 'TIP.PGE' | wc -l

With respect to stable kernels, overlayfs mmap function ovl_mmap() was
added in v4.19 but file_user_inode() was not added until v6.8 and never
back-ported to stable kernels. FMODE_BACKING that it depends on was added
in v6.5. This issue has gone largely unnoticed, so back-porting before
v6.8 is probably not worth it, so put 6.8 as the stable kernel prerequisite
version, although in practice the next long term kernel is 6.12.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This change add the WQ_UNBOUND flag to pm_wq, to make explicit this
workqueue can be unbound and that it does not benefit from per-cpu work.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.

In preparation for hierarchical schedulers, change scx_bpf_dsq_insert() and
scx_bpf_dsq_insert_vtime() to return bool instead of void. With
sub-schedulers, there will be no reliable way to guarantee a task is still
owned by the sub-scheduler at insertion time (e.g., the task may have been
migrated to another scheduler). The bool return value will enable
sub-schedulers to detect and gracefully handle insertion failures.
For the root scheduler, insertion failures will continue to trigger scheduler
abort via scx_error(), so existing code doesn't need to check the return
value. Backward compatibility is maintained through compat wrappers.
Also update scx_bpf_dsq_move() documentation to clarify that it can return
false for sub-schedulers when @dsq_id points to a disallowed local DSQ.

BPF programs to work with both old and new kernels.

The sched_ext code calls queue_balance_callback() during enqueue_task()
to defer operations that drop multiple locks until we can unpin them.
The call assumes that the rq lock is held until the callbacks are
invoked, and the pending callbacks will not be visible to any other
threads. This is enforced by a WARN_ON_ONCE() in rq_pin_lock().
However, balance_one() may actually drop the lock during a BPF dispatch
call. Another thread may win the race to get the rq lock and see the
pending callback. To avoid this, sched_ext must only queue the callback
after the dispatch calls have completed.

The previous fix to trace_marker required updating trace_marker_raw
as well. The difference between trace_marker_raw from trace_marker
is that the raw version is for applications to write binary structures
directly into the ring buffer instead of writing ASCII strings.
This is for applications that will read the raw data from the ring
buffer and get the data structures directly. It's a bit quicker than
using the ASCII version.
Unfortunately, it appears that our test suite has several tests that
test writes to the trace_marker file, but lacks any tests to the
trace_marker_raw file (this needs to be remedied). Two issues came
about the update to the trace_marker_raw file that syzbot found:
- Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use per CPU buffer
The fix to use the per CPU buffer to copy from user space was needed for
both the trace_maker and trace_maker_raw file.
The fix for reading from user space into per CPU buffers properly fixed
the trace_marker write function, but the trace_marker_raw file wasn't
fixed properly. The user space data was correctly written into the per CPU
buffer, but the code that wrote into the ring buffer still used the user
space pointer and not the per CPU buffer that had the user space data
already written.
- Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw
After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(), another
issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects binary data, the
first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry structure is defined as:
struct {
struct trace_entry ent;
int id;
char buf[];
};
The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:
memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);
This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.
The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the cnt
used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating sizeof(*entry)
plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than what is needed.
Change the size function to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy().

The arraymap and hashtab duplicate the logic that checks for and frees
internal structs (timer, workqueue, task_work) based on
BTF record flags. Centralize this by introducing two helpers:
* bpf_map_has_internal_structs(map)
Returns true if the map value contains any of internal structs:
BPF_TIMER | BPF_WORKQUEUE | BPF_TASK_WORK.
* bpf_map_free_internal_structs(map, obj)
Frees the internal structs for a single value object.
Convert arraymap and both the prealloc/malloc hashtab paths to use the
new generic functions. This keeps the functionality for when/how to free
these special fields in one place and makes it easier to add support for
new internal structs in the future without touching every map

When unpinning a BPF hash table (htab or htab_lru) that contains internal
structures (timer, workqueue, or task_work) in its values, a BUG warning
is triggered:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/bpf/hashtab.c:244
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 14, name: ksoftirqd/0
...
The issue arises from the interaction between BPF object unpinning and
RCU callback mechanisms:
1. BPF object unpinning uses ->free_inode() which schedules cleanup via
call_rcu(), deferring the actual freeing to an RCU callback that
executes within the RCU_SOFTIRQ context.
2. During cleanup of hash tables containing internal structures,
htab_map_free_internal_structs() is invoked, which includes
cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu() calls to yield the CPU during
potentially long operations.
However, cond_resched() or cond_resched_rcu() cannot be safely called from
atomic RCU softirq context, leading to the BUG warning when attempting
to reschedule.
Fix this by changing from ->free_inode() to ->destroy_inode() and rename
bpf_free_inode() to bpf_destroy_inode() for BPF objects (prog, map, link).
This allows direct inode freeing without RCU callback scheduling,
avoiding the invalid context warning.

Rename the storage_get_func_atomic flag to a more generic non_sleepable
flag that tracks whether a helper or kfunc may be called from a
non-sleepable context. This makes the flag more broadly applicable
beyond just storage_get helpers. See [0] for more context.
The flag is now set unconditionally for all helpers and kfuncs when:
- RCU critical section is active.
- Preemption is disabled.
- IRQs are disabled.
- In a non-sleepable context within a sleepable program (e.g., timer
callbacks), which is indicated by !in_sleepable().
Previously, the flag was only set for storage_get helpers in these
contexts. With this change, it can be used by any code that needs to
differentiate between sleepable and non-sleepable contexts at the
per-instruction level.
The existing usage in do_misc_fixups() for storage_get helpers is
preserved by checking is_storage_get_function() before using the flag.

Fix the BPF verifier to correctly determine the sleepable context of
async callbacks based on the async primitive type rather than the arming
program's context.
The bug is in in_sleepable() which uses OR logic to check if the current
execution context is sleepable. When a sleepable program arms a timer
callback, the callback's state correctly has in_sleepable=false, but
in_sleepable() would still return true due to env->prog->sleepable being
true. This incorrectly allows sleepable helpers like
bpf_copy_from_user() inside timer callbacks when armed from sleepable
programs, even though timer callbacks always execute in non-sleepable
context.
Fix in_sleepable() to rely solely on env->cur_state->in_sleepable, and
initialize state->in_sleepable to env->prog->sleepable in
do_check_common() for the main program entry. This ensures the sleepable
context is properly tracked per verification state rather than being
overridden by the program's sleepability.
The env->cur_state NULL check in in_sleepable() was only needed for
do_misc_fixups() which runs after verification when env->cur_state is
set to NULL. Update do_misc_fixups() to use env->prog->sleepable
directly for the storage_get_function check, and remove the redundant
NULL check from in_sleepable().
Introduce is_async_cb_sleepable() helper to explicitly determine async
callback sleepability based on the primitive type:
- bpf_timer callbacks are never sleepable
- bpf_wq and bpf_task_work callbacks are always sleepable
Add verifier_bug() check to catch unhandled async callback types,
ensuring future additions cannot be silently mishandled. Move the
is_task_work_add_kfunc() forward declaration to the top alongside other
callback-related helpers. We update push_async_cb() to adjust to the new
changes.
At the same time, while simplifying in_sleepable(), we notice a problem
in do_misc_fixups. Fix storage_get helpers to use GFP_ATOMIC when called
from non-sleepable contexts within sleepable programs, such as bpf_timer
callbacks.
Currently, the check in do_misc_fixups assumes that env->prog->sleepable,
previously in_sleepable(env) which only resolved to this check before
last commit, holds across the program's execution, but that is not true.
Instead, the func_atomic bit must be set whenever we see the function
being called in an atomic context. Previously, this is being done when
the helper is invoked in atomic contexts in sleepable programs, we can
simply just set the value to true without doing an in_sleepable() check.
We must also do a standalone in_sleepable() check to handle cases where
the async callback itself is armed from a sleepable program, but is
itself non-sleepable (e.g., timer callback) and invokes such a helper,
thus needing the func_atomic bit to be true for the said call.
Adjust do_misc_fixups() to drop any checks regarding sleepable nature of
the program, and just depend on the func_atomic bit to decide which GFP
flag to pass.

- Have osnoise tracer use memdup_user_nul()
The function osnoise_cpus_write() open codes a kmalloc() and then
a copy_from_user() and then adds a nul byte at the end which is the
same as simply using memdup_user_nul().
- Fix wakeup and irq tracers when failing to acquire calltime
When the wakeup and irq tracers use the function graph tracer for
tracing function times, it saves a timestamp into the fgraph shadow
stack. It is possible that this could fail to be stored. If that
happens, it exits the routine early. These functions also disable
nesting of the operations by incremeting the data "disable" counter.
But if the calltime exits out early, it never increments the counter
back to what it needs to be.
Since there's only a couple of lines of code that does work after
acquiring the calltime, instead of exiting out early, reverse the
if statement to be true if calltime is acquired, and place the code
that is to be done within that if block. The clean up will always
be done after that.
- Fix ring_buffer_map() return value on failure of __rb_map_vma()
If __rb_map_vma() fails in ring_buffer_map(), it does not return
an error. This means the caller will be working against a bad vma
mapping. Have ring_buffer_map() return an error when __rb_map_vma()
fails.
- Fix regression of writing to the trace_marker file
A bug fix was made to change __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault() in the trace_marker write function.
The trace_marker file is used by applications to write into
it (usually with a file descriptor opened at the start of the
program) to record into the tracing system. It's usually used
in critical sections so the write to trace_marker is highly
optimized.
The reason for copying in an atomic section is that the write
reserves space on the ring buffer and then writes directly into
it. After it writes, it commits the event. The time between
reserve and commit must have preemption disabled.
The trace marker write does not have any locking nor can it
allocate due to the nature of it being a critical path.
Unfortunately, converting __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault() caused a regression in Android.
Now all the writes from its applications trigger the fault that
is rejected by the _nofault() version that wasn't rejected by
the _inatomic() version. Instead of getting data, it now just
gets a trace buffer filled with:
tracing_mark_write: <faulted>
To fix this, on opening of the trace_marker file, allocate
per CPU buffers that can be used by the write call. Then
when entering the write call, do the following:
preempt_disable();
cpu = smp_processor_id();
buffer = per_cpu_ptr(cpu_buffers, cpu);
do {
cnt = nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu);
migrate_disable();
preempt_enable();
ret = copy_from_user(buffer, ptr, size);
preempt_disable();
migrate_enable();
} while (!ret && cnt != nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu));
if (!ret)
ring_buffer_write(buffer);
preempt_enable();
This works similarly to seqcount. As it must enabled preemption
to do a copy_from_user() into a per CPU buffer, if it gets
preempted, the buffer could be corrupted by another task.
To handle this, read the number of context switches of the current
CPU, disable migration, enable preemption, copy the data from
user space, then immediately disable preemption again.
If the number of context switches is the same, the buffer
is still valid. Otherwise it must be assumed that the buffer may
have been corrupted and it needs to try again.
Now the trace_marker write can get the user data even if it has
to fault it in, and still not grab any locks of its own.

It was reported that using __copy_from_user_inatomic() can actually
schedule. Which is bad when preemption is disabled. Even though there's
logic to check in_atomic() is set, but this is a nop when the kernel is
configured with PREEMPT_NONE. This is due to page faulting and the code
could schedule with preemption disabled.

The solution was to change the __copy_from_user_inatomic() to
copy_from_user_nofault(). But then it was reported that this caused a
regression in Android. There's several applications writing into
trace_marker() in Android, but now instead of showing the expected data,
it is showing:
tracing_mark_write: <faulted>
After reverting the conversion to copy_from_user_nofault(), Android was
able to get the data again.
Writes to the trace_marker is a way to efficiently and quickly enter data
into the Linux tracing buffer. It takes no locks and was designed to be as
non-intrusive as possible. This means it cannot allocate memory, and must
use pre-allocated data.
A method that is actively being worked on to have faultable system call
tracepoints read user space data is to allocate per CPU buffers, and use
them in the callback. The method uses a technique similar to seqcount.
That is something like this:
preempt_disable();
cpu = smp_processor_id();
buffer = this_cpu_ptr(&pre_allocated_cpu_buffers, cpu);
do {
cnt = nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu);
migrate_disable();
preempt_enable();
ret = copy_from_user(buffer, ptr, size);
preempt_disable();
migrate_enable();
} while (!ret && cnt != nr_context_switches_cpu(cpu));
if (!ret)
ring_buffer_write(buffer);
preempt_enable();
It's a little more involved than that, but the above is the basic logic.
The idea is to acquire the current CPU buffer, disable migration, and then
enable preemption. At this moment, it can safely use copy_from_user().
After reading the data from user space, it disables preemption again. It
then checks to see if there was any new scheduling on this CPU. If there
was, it must assume that the buffer was corrupted by another task. If
there wasn't, then the buffer is still valid as only tasks in preemptable
context can write to this buffer and only those that are running on the
CPU.
By using this method, where trace_marker open allocates the per CPU
buffers, trace_marker writes can access user space and even fault it in,
without having to allocate or take any locks of its own.

A vmalloc allocation is preserved using binary structure similar to global
KHO memory tracker. It's a linked list of pages where each page is an
array of physical address of pages in vmalloc area.
kho_preserve_vmalloc() hands out the physical address of the head page to
the caller. This address is used as the argument to kho_vmalloc_restore()
to restore the mapping in the vmalloc address space and populate it with
the preserved pages.

Patch series "kho: add support for preserving vmalloc allocations", v5.
Following the discussion about preservation of memfd with LUO [1] these
patches add support for preserving vmalloc allocations.
Any KHO uses case presumes that there's a data structure that lists
physical addresses of preserved folios (and potentially some additional
metadata). Allowing vmalloc preservations with KHO allows scalable
preservation of such data structures.
For instance, instead of allocating array describing preserved folios in
the fdt, memfd preservation can use vmalloc:
preserved_folios = vmalloc_array(nr_folios, sizeof(*preserved_folios));
memfd_luo_preserve_folios(preserved_folios, folios, nr_folios);
kho_preserve_vmalloc(preserved_folios, &folios_info);
This patch (of 4):
Instead of checking if kho is finalized in each caller of
__kho_preserve_order(), do it in the core function itself.

- Use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() instead of RCU for syscall tracepoints
Individual system call trace events are pseudo events attached to the
raw_syscall trace events that just trace the entry and exit of all system
calls. When any of these individual system call trace events get enabled,
an element in an array indexed by the system call number is assigned to
the trace file that defines how to trace it. When the trace event
triggers, it reads this array and if the array has an element, it uses that
trace file to know what to write it (the trace file defines the output
format of the corresponding system call).
The issue is that it uses rcu_dereference_ptr() and marks the elements of
the array as using RCU. This is incorrect. There is no RCU synchronization
here. The event file that is pointed to has a completely different way to
make sure its freed properly. The reading of the array during the system
call trace event is only to know if there is a value or not. If not, it
does nothing (it means this system call isn't being traced). If it does,
it uses the information to store the system call data.
The RCU usage here can simply be replaced by READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE()
macros.
- Have the system call trace events use "0x" for hex values
Some system call trace events display hex values but do not have "0x" in
front of it. Seeing "count: 44" can be assumed that it is 44 decimal when
in actuality it is 44 hex (68 decimal). Display "0x44" instead.
- Use vmalloc_array() in tracing_map_sort_entries()
The function tracing_map_sort_entries() used array_size() and vmalloc()
when it could have simply used vmalloc_array().
- Use for_each_online_cpu() in trace_osnoise.c()
Instead of open coding for_each_cpu(cpu, cpu_online_mask), use
for_each_online_cpu().
- Move the buffer field in struct trace_seq to the end
The buffer field in struct trace_seq is architecture dependent in size,
and caused padding for the fields after it. By moving the buffer to the
end of the structure, it compacts the trace_seq structure better.
- Remove redundant zeroing of cmdline_idx field in saved_cmdlines_buffer()
The structure that contains cmdline_idx is zeroed by memset(), no need to
explicitly zero any of its fields after that.
- Use system_percpu_wq instead of system_wq in user_event_mm_remove()
As system_wq is being deprecated, use the new wq.
- Add cond_resched() is ftrace_module_enable()
Some modules have a lot of functions (thousands of them), and the enabling
of those functions can take some time. On non preemtable kernels, it was
triggering a watchdog timeout. Add a cond_resched() to prevent that.
- Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to make sure PID_MAX_DEFAULT is always a power of 2
There's code that depends on PID_MAX_DEFAULT being a power of 2 or it will
break. If in the future that changes, make sure the build fails to ensure
that the code is fixed that depends on this.
- Grab mutex_lock() before ever exiting s_start()
The s_start() function is a seq_file start routine. As s_stop() is always
called even if s_start() fails, and s_stop() expects the event_mutex to be
held as it will always release it. That mutex must always be taken in
s_start() even if that function fails.

element, it uses that trace file to know what to write it (the trace
file defines the output format of the corresponding system call).
The issue is that it uses rcu_dereference_ptr() and marks the
elements of the array as using RCU. This is incorrect. There is no
RCU synchronization here. The event file that is pointed to has a
completely different way to make sure its freed properly. The reading
of the array during the system call trace event is only to know if
there is a value or not. If not, it does nothing (it means this
system call isn't being traced). If it does, it uses the information
to store the system call data.
The RCU usage here can simply be replaced by READ_ONCE() and
WRITE_ONCE() macros.
- Have the system call trace events use "0x" for hex values
Some system call trace events display hex values but do not have "0x"
in front of it. Seeing "count: 44" can be assumed that it is 44
decimal when in actuality it is 44 hex (68 decimal). Display "0x44"
instead.
- Use vmalloc_array() in tracing_map_sort_entries()
The function tracing_map_sort_entries() used array_size() and
vmalloc() when it could have simply used vmalloc_array().
- Use for_each_online_cpu() in trace_osnoise.c()
Instead of open coding for_each_cpu(cpu, cpu_online_mask), use
for_each_online_cpu().
- Move the buffer field in struct trace_seq to the end
The buffer field in struct trace_seq is architecture dependent in
size, and caused padding for the fields after it. By moving the
buffer to the end of the structure, it compacts the trace_seq
structure better.
- Remove redundant zeroing of cmdline_idx field in
saved_cmdlines_buffer()
The structure that contains cmdline_idx is zeroed by memset(), no
need to explicitly zero any of its fields after that.
- Use system_percpu_wq instead of system_wq in user_event_mm_remove()
As system_wq is being deprecated, use the new wq.
- Add cond_resched() is ftrace_module_enable()
Some modules have a lot of functions (thousands of them), and the
enabling of those functions can take some time. On non preemtable
kernels, it was triggering a watchdog timeout. Add a cond_resched()
to prevent that.
- Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to make sure PID_MAX_DEFAULT is always a power
of 2
There's code that depends on PID_MAX_DEFAULT being a power of 2 or it
will break. If in the future that changes, make sure the build fails
to ensure that the code is fixed that depends on this.
- Grab mutex_lock() before ever exiting s_start()
The s_start() function is a seq_file start routine. As s_stop() is
always called even if s_start() fails, and s_stop() expects the
event_mutex to be held as it will always release it. That mutex must
always be taken in s_start() even if that function fails.

When s_start() fails to allocate memory for set_event_iter, it returns NULL
before acquiring event_mutex. However, the corresponding s_stop() function
always tries to unlock the mutex, causing a lock imbalance warning:
WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
6.17.0-rc7-00175-g2b2e0c04f78c #7 Not tainted
-------------------------------------
syz.0.85611/376514 is trying to release lock (event_mutex) at:
[<ffffffff8dafc7a4>] traverse.part.0.constprop.0+0x2c4/0x650 fs/seq_file.c:131
but there are no more locks to release!
The issue was introduced by commit b355247df1 ("tracing: Cache ':mod:'
events for modules not loaded yet") which added the kzalloc() allocation before
the mutex lock, creating a path where s_start() could return without locking
the mutex while s_stop() would still try to unlock it.
Fix this by unconditionally acquiring the mutex immediately after allocation,
regardless of whether the allocation succeeded.

The commit afa3701c0e ("cgroup: cgroup.stat.local time accounting")
introduced a seqcount to track freeze timing but initialized it as a
plain seqcount_t using seqcount_init().
However, the write-side critical section in cgroup_do_freeze() holds
the css_set_lock spinlock while calling write_seqcount_begin(). On
PREEMPT_RT kernels, spinlocks do not disable preemption, causing the
lockdep assertion for a plain seqcount_t, which checks for preemption
being disabled, to fail.
This triggers the following warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9692 at include/linux/seqlock.h:221
Fix this by changing the type to seqcount_spinlock_t and initializing
it with seqcount_spinlock_init() to associate css_set_lock with the
seqcount. This allows lockdep to correctly validate that the spinlock
is held during write operations, resolving the assertion failure on all
kernel configurations.

in some situations.
- The 3 patch series "Some ptdesc cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox utilizes
the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
- The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from

and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.

Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim

from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
anon VMAs. It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
an anon vma.
- The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
removal of file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon
clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
- The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
of large folios. /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
- The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
counters.

Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
mm_slot handling.

Merge tag 'slab-for-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- A new layer for caching objects for allocation and free via percpu
arrays called sheaves.
The aim is to combine the good parts of SLAB (lower-overhead and
simpler percpu caching, compared to SLUB) without the past issues
with arrays for freeing remote NUMA node objects and their flushing.
It also allows more efficient kfree_rcu(), and cheaper object
preallocations for cases where the exact number of objects is
unknown, but an upper bound is.
Currently VMAs and maple nodes are using this new caching, with a
plan to enable it for all caches and remove the complex SLUB fastpath
based on cpu (partial) slabs and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double().
(Vlastimil Babka, with Liam Howlett and Pedro Falcato for the maple
tree changes)
- Re-entrant kmalloc_nolock(), which allows opportunistic allocations
from NMI and tracing/kprobe contexts.
Building on prior page allocator and memcg changes, it will result in
removing BPF-specific caches on top of slab (Alexei Starovoitov)
- Various fixes and cleanups. (Kuan-Wei Chiu, Matthew Wilcox, Suren
Baghdasaryan, Ye Liu)

Core & protocols
----------------
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP sockets
and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS.
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance by
an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions.
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism has
some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW offloads
capabilities.
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more than
one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building block for
Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S).
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath.
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA hosts,
this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on such HW.
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds.
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making dump
operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded synchronize_rcu() on
delete.
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per bridge
instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of magnitude
faster on large switches.
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO segmentation
time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios.
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets.
- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting recent
TCP autotuning changes.
- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down.
- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups.
- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races.
- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR, reducing
code duplication.
- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an XDP
buffer.
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code
--------------------------------------------
- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated
YAML parser.
Driver API
----------
- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection.
- Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue, allowing
TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups.
- Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath.
- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide the
number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity in RX
ring queries and RSS configuration.
- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause.
- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average, controlling
the average smoothing factor.

kcsan: test: Replace deprecated strcpy() with strscpy()
- A seven patch series adds a new parameterized test features
KUnit parameterized tests currently support two primary methods for
getting parameters:
1. Defining custom logic within a generate_params() function.
2. Using the KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM() and KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM_DESC()
macros with a pre-defined static array and passing
the created *_gen_params() to KUNIT_CASE_PARAM().
These methods present limitations when dealing with dynamically
generated parameter arrays, or in scenarios where populating parameters
sequentially via generate_params() is inefficient or overly complex.
These limitations are fixed with a parameterized test method.
- Fixes issues in kunit build artifacts cleanup,
- Fixes parsing skipped test problem in kselftest framework,
- Enables PCI on UML without triggering WARN()
- a few other fixes and adds support for new configs such as MIPS

KUnit parameterized tests supported two primary methods for getting
parameters:
- Defining custom logic within a generate_params() function.
- Using the KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM() and KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM_DESC() macros
with a pre-defined static array and passing the created
*_gen_params() to KUNIT_CASE_PARAM().
These methods present limitations when dealing with dynamically
generated parameter arrays, or in scenarios where populating
parameters sequentially via generate_params() is inefficient or
overly complex.
These limitations are fixed with a parameterized test method
- Fix issues in kunit build artifacts cleanup
- Fix parsing skipped test problem in kselftest framework
- Enable PCI on UML without triggering WARN()
- a few other fixes and adds support for new configs such as MIPS

When verifying BPF programs, the check_alu_op() function validates
instructions with ALU operations. The 'offset' field in these
instructions is a signed 16-bit integer.
The existing check 'insn->off > 1' was intended to ensure the offset is
either 0, or 1 for BPF_MOD/BPF_DIV. However, because 'insn->off' is
signed, this check incorrectly accepts all negative values (e.g., -1).
This commit tightens the validation by changing the condition to
'(insn->off != 0 && insn->off != 1)'. This ensures that any value
other than the explicitly permitted 0 and 1 is rejected, hardening the
verifier against malformed BPF programs.

In check_alu_op(), the verifier currently calls check_reg_arg() and
adjust_scalar_min_max_vals() unconditionally for BPF_NEG operations.
However, if the destination register holds a pointer, these scalar
adjustments are unnecessary and potentially incorrect.
This patch adds a check to skip the adjustment logic when the destination
register contains a pointer.

Move KVM's morphing of pending signals into userspace exits into KVM
proper, and drop the @vcpu param from xfer_to_guest_mode_handle_work().
How KVM responds to -EINTR is a detail that really belongs in KVM itself,
and invoking kvm_handle_signal_exit() from kernel code creates an inverted
module dependency. E.g. attempting to move kvm_handle_signal_exit() into
kvm_main.c would generate an linker error when building kvm.ko as a module.
Dropping KVM details will also converting the KVM "entry" code into a more
generic virtualization framework so that it can be used when running as a
Hyper-V root partition.
Lastly, eliminating usage of "struct kvm_vcpu" outside of KVM is also nice
to have for KVM x86 developers, as keeping the details of kvm_vcpu purely
within KVM allows changing the layout of the structure without having to
boot into a new kernel, e.g. allows rebuilding and reloading kvm.ko with a
modified kvm_vcpu structure as part of debug/development.

The current weak RSEQ symbols definitions which were added to allow
static linkage are not working correctly as the effectively re-define
the glibc symbols leading to multiple versions of the symbols when
compiled with -fno-common. Mark them as 'extern' to convert them from
weak symbol definitions to weak symbol references. That works with
static and dynamic linkage independent of -fcommon and -fno-common.

rseq/selftests: Use weak symbol reference, not definition, to link with glibc
rseq: Protect event mask against membarrier IPI
A soft lockup was observed when loading amdgpu module.
If a module has a lot of tracable functions, multiple calls
to kallsyms_lookup can spend too much time in RCU critical
section and with disabled preemption, causing kernel panic.
This is the same issue that was fixed in
commit d0b24b4e91 ("ftrace: Prevent RCU stall on PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY
kernels") and commit 42ea22e754 ("ftrace: Add cond_resched() to
ftrace_graph_set_hash()").
Fix it the same way by adding cond_resched() in ftrace_module_enable.

some additional work was needed to support logging the different LSM
labels for the subjects/tasks and objects on the system. Casey's
patches add new auxillary records for subjects and objects that
convey the additional labels.
- Ensure fanotify audit events are always generated
Generally speaking security relevant subsystems always generate audit
events, unless explicitly ignored. However, up to this point fanotify
events had been ignored by default, but starting with this pull
request fanotify follows convention and generates audit events by
default.

Merge tag 'namespace-6.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains a larger set of changes around the generic namespace
infrastructure of the kernel.
Each specific namespace type (net, cgroup, mnt, ...) embedds a struct
ns_common which carries the reference count of the namespace and so
on.
We open-coded and cargo-culted so many quirks for each namespace type
that it just wasn't scalable anymore. So given there's a bunch of new
changes coming in that area I've started cleaning all of this up.
The core change is to make it possible to correctly initialize every
namespace uniformly and derive the correct initialization settings
from the type of the namespace such as namespace operations, namespace
type and so on. This leaves the new ns_common_init() function with a
single parameter which is the specific namespace type which derives
the correct parameters statically. This also means the compiler will
yell as soon as someone does something remotely fishy.
The ns_common_init() addition also allows us to remove ns_alloc_inum()
and drops any special-casing of the initial network namespace in the
network namespace initialization code that Linus complained about.
Another part is reworking the reference counting. The reference
counting was open-coded and copy-pasted for each namespace type even
though they all followed the same rules. This also removes all open
accesses to the reference count and makes it private and only uses a
very small set of dedicated helpers to manipulate them just like we do
for e.g., files.
In addition this generalizes the mount namespace iteration
infrastructure introduced a few cycles ago. As reminder, the vfs makes
it possible to iterate sequentially and bidirectionally through all
mount namespaces on the system or all mount namespaces that the caller
holds privilege over. This allow userspace to iterate over all mounts
in all mount namespaces using the listmount() and statmount() system
call.
Each mount namespace has a unique identifier for the lifetime of the
systems that is exposed to userspace. The network namespace also has a
unique identifier working exactly the same way. This extends the
concept to all other namespace types.
The new nstree type makes it possible to lookup namespaces purely by
their identifier and to walk the namespace list sequentially and
bidirectionally for all namespace types, allowing userspace to iterate
through all namespaces. Looking up namespaces in the namespace tree
works completely locklessly.
This also means we can move the mount namespace onto the generic
infrastructure and remove a bunch of code and members from struct
mnt_namespace itself.
There's a bunch of stuff coming on top of this in the future but for
now this uses the generic namespace tree to extend a concept
introduced first for pidfs a few cycles ago. For a while now we have
supported pidfs file handles for pidfds. This has proven to be very
useful.
This extends the concept to cover namespaces as well. It is possible
to encode and decode namespace file handles using the common
name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() apis.
As with pidfs file handles, namespace file handles are exhaustive,
meaning it is not required to actually hold a reference to nsfs in
able to decode aka open_by_handle_at() a namespace file handle.
Instead the FD_NSFS_ROOT constant can be passed which will let the
kernel grab a reference to the root of nsfs internally and thus decode
the file handle.
Namespaces file descriptors can already be derived from pidfds which
means they aren't subject to overmount protection bugs. IOW, it's
irrelevant if the caller would not have access to an appropriate
/proc/<pid>/ns/ directory as they could always just derive the
namespace based on a pidfd already.
It has the same advantage as pidfds. It's possible to reliably and for
the lifetime of the system refer to a namespace without pinning any
resources and to compare them trivially.
Permission checking is kept simple. If the caller is located in the
namespace the file handle refers to they are able to open it otherwise
they must hold privilege over the owning namespace of the relevant
namespace.
The namespace file handle layout is exposed as uapi and has a stable
and extensible format. For now it simply contains the namespace
identifier, the namespace type, and the inode number. The stable
format means that userspace may construct its own namespace file
handles without going through name_to_handle_at() as they are already
allowed for pidfs and cgroup file handles"

"This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.
Features:
- Add "initramfs_options" parameter to set initramfs mount options.
This allows to add specific mount options to the rootfs to e.g.,
limit the memory size
- Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2()
Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2. This flag prevents the SIGPIPE
signal from being raised when writing on disconnected pipes or
sockets. The flag is handled directly by the pipe filesystem and
converted to the existing MSG_NOSIGNAL flag for sockets
- Allow to pass pid namespace as procfs mount option
Ever since the introduction of pid namespaces, procfs has had very
implicit behaviour surrounding them (the pidns used by a procfs
mount is auto-selected based on the mounting process's active
pidns, and the pidns itself is basically hidden once the mount has
been constructed)
This implicit behaviour has historically meant that userspace was
required to do some special dances in order to configure the pidns
of a procfs mount as desired. Examples include:
* In order to bypass the mnt_too_revealing() check, Kubernetes
creates a procfs mount from an empty pidns so that user
namespaced containers can be nested (without this, the nested
containers would fail to mount procfs)
But this requires forking off a helper process because you cannot
just one-shot this using mount(2)
* Container runtimes in general need to fork into a container
before configuring its mounts, which can lead to security issues
in the case of shared-pidns containers (a privileged process in
the pidns can interact with your container runtime process)
While SUID_DUMP_DISABLE and user namespaces make this less of an
issue, the strict need for this due to a minor uAPI wart is kind
of unfortunate
Things would be much easier if there was a way for userspace to
just specify the pidns they want. So this pull request contains
changes to implement a new "pidns" argument which can be set
using fsconfig(2):
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "pidns", NULL, nsfd);
fsconfig(procfd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "pidns", "/proc/self/ns/pid", 0);
or classic mount(2) / mount(8):
// mount -t proc -o pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid proc /tmp/proc
mount("proc", "/tmp/proc", "proc", MS_..., "pidns=/proc/self/ns/pid");

If a process calls prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG) at the same time that the
parent process exits, the child will write to me->pdeath_sig at the same
time the parent is reading it. Since there is no synchronization, this is
a data race.
Worse, it is possible that a subsequent call to getppid() can continue to
return the previous parent process ID without the parent death signal
being delivered. This happens in the following scenario:
parent child
forget_original_parent() prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, SIGKILL)
sys_prctl()
me->pdeath_sig = SIGKILL;
getppid();
RCU_INIT_POINTER(t->real_parent, reaper);
if (t->pdeath_signal) /* reads stale me->pdeath_sig */
group_send_sig_info(t->pdeath_signal, ...);
And in the following:
parent child
forget_original_parent()
RCU_INIT_POINTER(t->real_parent, reaper);
/* also no barrier */
if (t->pdeath_signal) /* reads stale me->pdeath_sig */
group_send_sig_info(t->pdeath_signal, ...);
prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, SIGKILL)
sys_prctl()
me->pdeath_sig = SIGKILL;
getppid(); /* reads old ppid() */
As a result, the following pattern is racy:
pid_t parent_pid = getpid();
pid_t child_pid = fork();
if (child_pid == -1) {
/* handle error... */
return;
}
if (child_pid == 0) {
if (prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, SIGKILL) != 0) {
/* handle error */
_exit(126);
}
if (getppid() != parent_pid) {
/* parent died already */
raise(SIGKILL);
}
/* keep going in child */
}
/* keep going in parent */
If the parent is killed at exactly the wrong time, the child process can
(wrongly) stay running.
I didn't manage to reproduce this in my testing, but I'm pretty sure the
race is real. KCSAN is probably the best way to spot the race.
Fix the bug by holding tasklist_lock for reading whenever pdeath_signal is
being written to. This prevents races on me->pdeath_sig, and the locking
and unlocking of the rwlock provide the needed memory barriers. If
prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG) happens before the parent exits, the signal will
be sent. If it happens afterwards, a subsequent getppid() will return the
new value.

kho_fill_kimage() only checks for KHO being enabled before filling in the
FDT to the image. KHO being enabled does not mean that the kernel has
data to hand over. That happens when KHO is finalized.
When a kexec is done with KHO enabled but not finalized, the FDT page is
allocated but not initialized. FDT initialization happens after finalize.
This means the KHO segment is filled in but the FDT contains garbage
data.
This leads to the below error messages in the next kernel:
[ 0.000000] KHO: setup: handover FDT (0x10116b000) is invalid: -9
[ 0.000000] KHO: disabling KHO revival: -22
There is no problem in practice, and the next kernel boots and works fine.
But this still leads to misleading error messages and garbage being
handed over.
Only fill in KHO segment when KHO is finalized. When KHO is not enabled,
the debugfs interface is not created and there is no way to finalize it
anyway. So the check for kho_enable is not needed, and kho_out.finalize
alone is enough.

Instead of switching ->f_path.mnt of an opened file to internal
clone, get a struct path with ->mnt set to internal clone of that
->f_path.mnt, then dentry_open() that to get the file with right ->f_path.mnt
from the very beginning.
The only subtle part here is that on failure exits we need to
close the file with __fput_sync() and make sure we do that *before*
dropping the original mount.
With that done, only fs/{file_table,open,namei}.c ever store
anything to file->f_path and only prior to file->f_mode & FMODE_OPENED
becoming true. Analysis of mount write count handling also becomes
less brittle and convoluted...

Yinhao et al. recently reported:
Our fuzzer tool discovered an uninitialized pointer issue in the
bpf_prog_test_run_xdp() function within the Linux kernel's BPF subsystem.
This leads to a NULL pointer dereference when a BPF program attempts to
deference the txq member of struct xdp_buff object.
The test initializes two programs of BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP: progA acts as the
entry point for bpf_prog_test_run_xdp() and its expected_attach_type can
neither be of be BPF_XDP_DEVMAP nor BPF_XDP_CPUMAP. progA calls into a slot
of a tailcall map it owns. progB's expected_attach_type must be BPF_XDP_DEVMAP
to pass xdp_is_valid_access() validation. The program returns struct xdp_md's
egress_ifindex, and the latter is only allowed to be accessed under mentioned
expected_attach_type. progB is then inserted into the tailcall which progA
calls.
The underlying issue goes beyond XDP though. Another example are programs
of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR. sock_addr_is_valid_access() as well
as sock_addr_func_proto() have different logic depending on the programs'
expected_attach_type. Similarly, a program attached to BPF_CGROUP_INET4_GETPEERNAME
should not be allowed doing a tailcall into a program which calls bpf_bind()
out of BPF which is only enabled for BPF_CGROUP_INET4_CONNECT.
In short, specifying expected_attach_type allows to open up additional
functionality or restrictions beyond what the basic bpf_prog_type enables.
The use of tailcalls must not violate these constraints. Fix it by enforcing
expected_attach_type in __bpf_prog_map_compatible().
Note that we only enforce this for tailcall maps, but not for BPF devmaps or
cpumaps: There, the programs are invoked through dev_map_bpf_prog_run*() and
cpu_map_bpf_prog_run*() which set up a new environment / context and therefore
these situations are not prone to this issue.

function_graph_enter_regs() prevents itself from recursion by
ftrace_test_recursion_trylock(), but __ftrace_return_to_handler(),
which is called at the exit, does not prevent such recursion.
Therefore, while it can prevent recursive calls from
fgraph_ops::entryfunc(), it is not able to prevent recursive calls
to fgraph from fgraph_ops::retfunc(), resulting in a recursive loop.
This can lead an unexpected recursion bug reported by Menglong.
is_endbr() is called in __ftrace_return_to_handler -> fprobe_return
-> kprobe_multi_link_exit_handler -> is_endbr.
To fix this issue, acquire ftrace_test_recursion_trylock() in the
__ftrace_return_to_handler() after unwind the shadow stack to mark
this section must prevent recursive call of fgraph inside user-defined
fgraph_ops::retfunc().
This is essentially a fix to commit 4346ba1604 ("fprobe: Rewrite
fprobe on function-graph tracer"), because before that fgraph was
only used from the function graph tracer. Fprobe allowed user to run
any callbacks from fgraph after that commit.

Currently data_check_size() limits data blocks to a maximum size of
the full buffer minus an ID (long integer):
max_size <= DATA_SIZE(data_ring) - sizeof(long)
However, this is not an appropriate limit due to the nature of
wrapping data blocks. For example, if a data block is larger than
half the buffer:
size = (DATA_SIZE(data_ring) / 2) + 8
and begins exactly in the middle of the buffer, then:
- the data block will wrap
- the ID will be stored at exactly half of the buffer
- the record data begins at the beginning of the buffer
- the record data ends 8 bytes _past_ exactly half of the buffer
The record overwrites itself, i.e. needs more space than the full
buffer!
Luckily printk() is not vulnerable to this problem because
truncate_msg() limits printk-messages to 1/4 of the ringbuffer.
Indeed, by adjusting the printk_ringbuffer KUnit test, which does not
use printk() and its truncate_msg() check, it is easy to see that the
ringbuffer becomes corrupted for records larger than half the buffer
size.
The corruption occurs because data_push_tail() expects it will never
be requested to push the tail beyond the head.
Avoid this problem by adjusting data_check_size() to limit record
sizes to half the buffer size. Also add WARN_ON_ONCE() before
relevant data_push_tail() calls to validate that there are no such
illegal requests. WARN_ON_ONCE() is used, rather than just adding
extra checks to data_push_tail() because it is considered a bug to
attempt such illegal actions.

The stacktrace map can be easily full, which will lead to failure in
obtaining the stack. In addition to increasing the size of the map,
another solution is to delete the stack_id after looking it up from

functionality to stacktrace map types.

Some drivers have different flows for hibernation and suspend. If
the driver opportunistically will skip thaw() then it needs a hint
to know what is happening after the hibernate.
Introduce a new symbol pm_hibernation_mode_is_suspend() that drivers
can call to determine if suspending the system for this purpose.

Hybrid sleep will hibernate the system followed by running through
the suspend routine. Since both the hibernate and the suspend routine
will call pm_restrict_gfp_mask(), pm_restore_gfp_mask() must be called
before starting the suspend sequence.
Add an explicit call to pm_restore_gfp_mask() to power_down() before
the suspend sequence starts. Add an extra call for pm_restrict_gfp_mask()
when exiting suspend so that the pm_restore_gfp_mask() call in hibernate()
is balanced.

For now, migrate_enable and migrate_disable are global, which makes them
become hotspots in some case. Take BPF for example, the function calling
to migrate_enable and migrate_disable in BPF trampoline can introduce
significant overhead, and following is the 'perf top' of FENTRY's
benchmark (./tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bench trig-fentry):
54.63% bpf_prog_2dcccf652aac1793_bench_trigger_fentry [k]
bpf_prog_2dcccf652aac1793_bench_trigger_fentry
10.43% [kernel] [k] migrate_enable

0.73% [kernel] [k] bpf_prog_test_run_raw_tp
So in this commit, we make migrate_enable/migrate_disable inline to obtain
better performance. The struct rq is defined internally in
kernel/sched/sched.h, and the field "nr_pinned" is accessed in
migrate_enable/migrate_disable, which makes it hard to make them inline.
Alexei Starovoitov suggests to generate the offset of "nr_pinned" in [1],
so we can define the migrate_enable/migrate_disable in
include/linux/sched.h and access "this_rq()->nr_pinned" with
"(void *)this_rq() + RQ_nr_pinned".
The offset of "nr_pinned" is generated in include/generated/rq-offsets.h
by kernel/sched/rq-offsets.c.
Generally speaking, we move the definition of migrate_enable and
migrate_disable to include/linux/sched.h from kernel/sched/core.c. The
calling to __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() is leaved in ___migrate_enable().
The "struct rq" is not available in include/linux/sched.h, so we can't
access the "runqueues" with this_cpu_ptr(), as the compilation will fail
in this_cpu_ptr() -> raw_cpu_ptr() -> __verify_pcpu_ptr():
typeof((ptr) + 0)
So we introduce the this_rq_raw() and access the runqueues with
arch_raw_cpu_ptr/PERCPU_PTR directly.
The variable "runqueues" is not visible in the kernel modules, and export
it is not a good idea. As Peter Zijlstra advised in [2], we define and
export migrate_enable/migrate_disable in kernel/sched/core.c too, and use
them for the modules.

John reported undesirable behaviour with the dl_server since commit:
cccb45d7c4 ("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handling").
When starving fair tasks on purpose (starting spinning FIFO tasks),
his fair workload, which often goes (briefly) idle, would delay fair
invocations for a second, running one invocation per second was both
unexpected and terribly slow.
The reason this happens is that when dl_se->server_pick_task() returns
NULL, indicating no runnable tasks, it would yield, pushing any later
jobs out a whole period (1 second).
Instead simply stop the server. This should restore behaviour in that
a later wakeup (which restarts the server) will be able to continue
running (subject to the CBS wakeup rules).
Notably, this does not re-introduce the behaviour cccb45d7c4 set
out to solve, any start/stop cycle is naturally throttled by the timer
period (no active cancel).

John found it was easy to hit lockup warnings when running locktorture
on a 2 CPU VM, which he bisected down to: commit cccb45d7c4
("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server handling").
While debugging it seems there is a chance where we end up with the
dl_server dequeued, with dl_se->dl_server_active. This causes
dl_server_start() to return without enqueueing the dl_server, thus it
fails to run when RT tasks starve the cpu.
When this happens, dl_server_timer() catches the
'!dl_se->server_has_tasks(dl_se)' case, which then calls
replenish_dl_entity() and dl_server_stopped() and finally return
HRTIMER_NO_RESTART.
This ends in no new timer and also no enqueue, leaving the dl_server
'dead', allowing starvation.
What should have happened is for the bandwidth timer to start the
zero-laxity timer, which in turn would enqueue the dl_server and cause
dl_se->server_pick_task() to be called -- which will stop the
dl_server if no fair tasks are observed for a whole period.
IOW, it is totally irrelevant if there are fair tasks at the moment of
bandwidth refresh.
This removes all dl_se->server_has_tasks() users, so remove the whole
thing.

Since uprobe and kprobe programs share the same type (BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE),

When restoring a page, no sanity checks are done to make sure the page
actually came from a kexec handover. The caller is trusted to pass in the
right address. If the caller has a bug and passes in a wrong address, an
in-use page might be "restored" and returned, causing all sorts of memory
corruption.
Harden the page restore logic by stashing in a magic number in
page->private along with the order. If the magic number does not match,
the page won't be touched. page->private is an unsigned long. The union
kho_page_info splits it into two parts, with one holding the order and the
other holding the magic number.

While KHO exposes folio as the primitive externally, internally its
restoration machinery operates on pages. This can be seen with
kho_restore_folio() for example. It performs some sanity checks and hands
it over to kho_restore_page() to do the heavy lifting of page restoration.
After the work done by kho_restore_page(), kho_restore_folio() only
converts the head page to folio and returns it. Similarly,
deserialize_bitmap() operates on the head page directly to store the
order.
Move the sanity checks for valid phys and order from the public-facing
kho_restore_folio() to the private-facing kho_restore_page(). This makes
the boundary between page and folio clearer from KHO's perspective.
While at it, drop the comment above kho_restore_page(). The comment is
misleading now. The function stopped looking like free_reserved_page()
since 12b9a2c05d ("kho: initialize tail pages for higher order folios
properly"), and now looks even more different.

In preparation for multiple scheduler support, separate out scx_kick_cpu()
from scx_bpf_kick_cpu() and add the @sch parameter to it. scx_bpf_kick_cpu()
now acquires an RCU read lock, reads $scx_root, and calls scx_kick_cpu()
with it if non-NULL. The passed in @sch parameter is not used yet.
Internal uses of scx_bpf_kick_cpu() are converted to scx_kick_cpu(). Where
$sch is available, it's used. In the pick_task_scx() path where no
associated scheduler can be identified, $scx_root is used directly. Note
that $scx_root cannot be NULL in this case.

ops.exit() may be called even if the loading failed before ops.init()
finishes successfully. This is because ops.exit() allows rich exit info
communication. Add SCX_EFLAG_INITIALIZED flag to scx_exit_info.flags to

Currently, signed load instructions into arena memory are unsupported.
The compiler is free to generate these, and on GCC-14 we see a
corresponding error when it happens. The hurdle in supporting them is
deciding which unused opcode to use to mark them for the JIT's own
consumption. After much thinking, it appears 0xc0 / BPF_NOSPEC can be
combined with load instructions to identify signed arena loads. Use
this to recognize and JIT them appropriately, and remove the verifier

Implementation of the new bpf_task_work_schedule kfuncs, that let a BPF
program schedule task_work callbacks for a target task:
* bpf_task_work_schedule_signal() - schedules with TWA_SIGNAL
* bpf_task_work_schedule_resume() - schedules with TWA_RESUME
Each map value should embed a struct bpf_task_work, which the kernel
side pairs with struct bpf_task_work_kern, containing a pointer to
struct bpf_task_work_ctx, that maintains metadata relevant for the
concrete callback scheduling.
A small state machine and refcounting scheme ensures safe reuse and
teardown. State transitions:
_______________________________
| |
v |
[standby] ---> [pending] --> [scheduling] --> [scheduled]
^ |________________|_________
| |
| v
| [running]
|_______________________________________________________|
All states may transition into FREED state:
[pending] [scheduling] [scheduled] [running] [standby] -> [freed]
A FREED terminal state coordinates with map-value
deletion (bpf_task_work_cancel_and_free()).
Scheduling itself is deferred via irq_work to keep the kfunc callable
from NMI context.
Lifetime is guarded with refcount_t + RCU Tasks Trace.
Main components:
* struct bpf_task_work_context – Metadata and state management per task
work.
* enum bpf_task_work_state – A state machine to serialize work
scheduling and execution.
* bpf_task_work_schedule() – The central helper that initiates
scheduling.
* bpf_task_work_acquire_ctx() - Attempts to take ownership of the context,
pointed by passed struct bpf_task_work, allocates new context if none
exists yet.
* bpf_task_work_callback() – Invoked when the actual task_work runs.
* bpf_task_work_irq() – An intermediate step (runs in softirq context)
to enqueue task work.
* bpf_task_work_cancel_and_free() – Cleanup for deleted BPF map entries.
Flow of successful task work scheduling
1) bpf_task_work_schedule_* is called from BPF code.
2) Transition state from STANDBY to PENDING, mark context as owned by
this task work scheduler
3) irq_work_queue() schedules bpf_task_work_irq().
4) Transition state from PENDING to SCHEDULING (noop if transition
successful)
5) bpf_task_work_irq() attempts task_work_add(). If successful, state
transitions to SCHEDULED.
6) Task work calls bpf_task_work_callback(), which transition state to
RUNNING.
7) BPF callback is executed
8) Context is cleaned up, refcounts released, context state set back to
STANDBY.

This patch adds necessary plumbing in verifier, syscall and maps to
support handling new kfunc bpf_task_work_schedule and kernel structure
bpf_task_work. The idea is similar to how we already handle bpf_wq and
bpf_timer.
verifier changes validate calls to bpf_task_work_schedule to make sure
it is safe and expected invariants hold.
btf part is required to detect bpf_task_work structure inside map value
and store its offset, which will be used in the next patch to calculate
key and value addresses.
arraymap and hashtab changes are needed to handle freeing of the
bpf_task_work: run code needed to deinitialize it, for example cancel
task_work callback if possible.
The use of bpf_task_work and proper implementation for kfuncs are
introduced in the next patch.

Currently the syscall trace events show each value as hexadecimal, but
without adding "0x" it can be confusing:
sys_write(fd: 4, buf: 0x55c4a1fa9270, count: 44)
Looks like the above write wrote 44 bytes, when in reality it wrote 68
bytes.
Add a "0x" for all values greater or equal to 10 to remove the ambiguity.
For values less than 10, leave off the "0x" as that just adds noise to the
output.
Also change the iterator to check if "i" is nonzero and print the ", "
delimiter at the start, then adding the logic to the trace_seq_printf() at
the end.

The syscall events are pseudo events that hook to the raw syscalls. The
ftrace_syscall_enter/exit() callback is called by the raw_syscall
enter/exit tracepoints respectively whenever any of the syscall events are
enabled.
The trace_array has an array of syscall "files" that correspond to the
system calls based on their __NR_SYSCALL number. The array is read and if
there's a pointer to a trace_event_file then it is considered enabled and
if it is NULL that syscall event is considered disabled.
Currently it uses an rcu_dereference_sched() to get this pointer and a
rcu_assign_ptr() or RCU_INIT_POINTER() to write to it. This is unnecessary
as the file pointer will not go away outside the synchronization of the
tracepoint logic itself. And this code adds no extra RCU synchronization
that uses this.
Replace these functions with a simple READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() which
is all they need. This will also allow this code to not depend on
preemption being disabled as system call tracepoints are now allowed to
fault.

kern_path_locked() is now only used to prepare for removing an object
from the filesystem (and that is the only credible reason for wanting a
positive locked dentry). Thus it corresponds to kern_path_create() and
so should have a corresponding name.
Unfortunately the name "kern_path_create" is somewhat misleading as it
doesn't actually create anything. The recently added
simple_start_creating() provides a better pattern I believe. The
"start" can be matched with "end" to bracket the creating or removing.
So this patch changes names:
kern_path_locked -> start_removing_path
kern_path_create -> start_creating_path
user_path_create -> start_creating_user_path
user_path_locked_at -> start_removing_user_path_at
done_path_create -> end_creating_path
and also introduces end_removing_path() which is identical to
end_creating_path().
__start_removing_path (which was __kern_path_locked) is enhanced to
call mnt_want_write() for consistency with the start_creating_path().

audit_alloc_mark() and audit_get_nd() both need to perform a path
lookup getting the parent dentry (which must exist) and the final
target (following a LAST_NORM name) which sometimes doesn't need to
exist.
They don't need the parent to be locked, but use kern_path_locked() or
kern_path_locked_negative() anyway. This is somewhat misleading to the
casual reader.
This patch introduces a more targeted function, kern_path_parent(),
which returns not holding locks. On success the "path" will
be set to the parent, which must be found, and the return value is the
dentry of the target, which might be negative.
This will clear the way to rename kern_path_locked() which is
otherwise only used to prepare for removing something.
It also allows us to remove kern_path_locked_negative(), which is
transformed into the new kern_path_parent().

The usage of task_lock(tsk->group_leader) in sys_prlimit64()->do_prlimit()
path is very broken.
sys_prlimit64() does get_task_struct(tsk) but this only protects task_struct
itself. If tsk != current and tsk is not a leader, this process can exit/exec
and task_lock(tsk->group_leader) may use the already freed task_struct.
Another problem is that sys_prlimit64() can race with mt-exec which changes
->group_leader. In this case do_prlimit() may take the wrong lock, or (worse)
->group_leader may change between task_lock() and task_unlock().
Change sys_prlimit64() to take tasklist_lock when necessary. This is not
nice, but I don't see a better fix for -stable.

This patch extends the BPF_PROG_LOAD command by adding three new fields
to `union bpf_attr` in the user-space API:
- signature: A pointer to the signature blob.
- signature_size: The size of the signature blob.
- keyring_id: The serial number of a loaded kernel keyring (e.g.,
the user or session keyring) containing the trusted public keys.
When a BPF program is loaded with a signature, the kernel:
1. Retrieves the trusted keyring using the provided `keyring_id`.
2. Verifies the supplied signature against the BPF program's
instruction buffer.
3. If the signature is valid and was generated by a key in the trusted
keyring, the program load proceeds.
4. If no signature is provided, the load proceeds as before, allowing
for backward compatibility. LSMs can chose to restrict unsigned
programs and implement a security policy.
5. If signature verification fails for any reason,
the program is not loaded.

This contains a fix for sched_ext idle CPU selection that likely fixes
a substantial performance regression.
The scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl/and() kfuncs were incorrectly detecting all
tasks as migration-disabled when called outside ops.select_cpu(), causing
them to always return -EBUSY instead of finding idle CPUs. The fix properly
distinguishes between genuinely migration-disabled tasks vs. the current

sched_ext: idle: Handle migration-disabled tasks in BPF code
When scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl()/and() kfuncs are invoked outside of
ops.select_cpu() we can't rely on @p->migration_disabled to determine if
migration is disabled for the task @p.
In fact, migration is always disabled for the current task while running
BPF code: __bpf_prog_enter() disables migration and __bpf_prog_exit()
re-enables it.
To handle this, when @p->migration_disabled == 1, check whether @p is
the current task. If so, migration was not disabled before entering the
callback, otherwise migration was disabled.
This ensures correct idle CPU selection in all cases. The behavior of
ops.select_cpu() remains unchanged, because this callback is never
invoked for the current task and migration-disabled tasks are always
excluded.
Example: without this change scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() called from
ops.enqueue() always returns -EBUSY; with this change applied, it
correctly returns idle CPUs.

will be released.
A pending vhost_task_wake() will then attempt to wake the task and
access a task_struct which is no longer there.
Acquire a reference on the task_struct while creating the thread and
release the reference while the struct vhost_task itself is removed.
If the task exits early due to a signal, then the vhost_task_wake() will
still access a valid task_struct. The wake is safe and will be skipped

Patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM Reaper
Traversal Order", v10.
This patch series focuses on optimizing victim process thawing and
refining the traversal order of the OOM reaper. Since __thaw_task() is
used to thaw a single thread of the victim, thawing only one thread cannot
guarantee the exit of the OOM victim when it is frozen. Patch 1 thaw the
entire process of the OOM victim to ensure that OOM victims are able to
terminate themselves. Even if the oom_reaper is delayed, patch 2 is still
beneficial for reaping processes with a large address space footprint, and
it also greatly improves process_mrelease.
This patch (of 10):
OOM killer is a mechanism that selects and kills processes when the system
runs out of memory to reclaim resources and keep the system stable. But
the oom victim cannot terminate on its own when it is frozen, even if the
OOM victim task is thawed through __thaw_task(). This is because
__thaw_task() can only thaw a single OOM victim thread, and cannot thaw
the entire OOM victim process.
In addition, freezing_slow_path() determines whether a task is an OOM
victim by checking the task's TIF_MEMDIE flag. When a task is identified
as an OOM victim, the freezer bypasses both PM freezing and cgroup
freezing states to thaw it.
Historically, TIF_MEMDIE was a "this is the oom victim & it has access to
memory reserves" flag in the past. It has that thread vs. process
problems and tsk_is_oom_victim was introduced later to get rid of them and
other issues as well as the guarantee that we can identify the oom
victim's mm reliably for other oom_reaper.
Therefore, thaw_process() is introduced to unfreeze all threads within the
OOM victim process, ensuring that every thread is properly thawed. The
freezer now uses tsk_is_oom_victim() to determine OOM victim status,
allowing all victim threads to be unfrozen as necessary.
With this change, the entire OOM victim process will be thawed when an OOM
event occurs, ensuring that the victim can terminate on its own.

When memory block is removed via try_remove_memory(), it eventually
reaches release_mem_region_adjustable(). The current implementation
assumes that when a busy memory resource is split into two, all child
resources remain in the lower address range.
This simplification causes problems when child resources actually belong
to the upper split. For example:
* Initial memory layout:
lsmem
RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK
0x0000000000000000-0x00000002ffffffff 12G online yes 0-95
* /proc/iomem
00000000-2dfefffff : System RAM
158834000-1597b3fff : Kernel code
1597b4000-159f50fff : Kernel data
15a13c000-15a218fff : Kernel bss
2dff00000-2ffefffff : Crash kernel
2fff00000-2ffffffff : System RAM
* After offlining and removing range
0x150000000-0x157ffffff
lsmem -o RANGE,SIZE,STATE,BLOCK,CONFIGURED
(output according to upcoming lsmem changes with the configured column:
s390)
RANGE SIZE STATE BLOCK CONFIGURED
0x0000000000000000-0x000000014fffffff 5.3G online 0-41 yes
0x0000000150000000-0x0000000157ffffff 128M offline 42 no
0x0000000158000000-0x00000002ffffffff 6.6G online 43-95 yes
The iomem resource gets split into two entries, but kernel code, kernel
data, and kernel bss remain attached to the lower resource [0–5376M]
instead of the correct upper resource [5504M–12288M].
As a result, WARN_ON() triggers in release_mem_region_adjustable()
("Usecase: split into two entries - we need a new resource")

Also, resource adjustment doesn't happen and stale resources still cover
[0-12288M]. Later, memory re-add fails in register_memory_resource() with
-EBUSY.
i.e: /proc/iomem is still:
00000000-2dfefffff : System RAM
158834000-1597b3fff : Kernel code
1597b4000-159f50fff : Kernel data

2dff00000-2ffefffff : Crash kernel
2fff00000-2ffffffff : System RAM
Enhance release_mem_region_adjustable() to reassign child resources to the
correct parent after a split. Children are now assigned based on their
actual range: If they fall within the lower split, keep them in the lower
parent. If they fall within the upper split, move them to the upper
parent.
Kernel code/data/bss regions are not offlined, so they will always reside
entirely within one parent and never span across both.
Output after the enhancement:
* Initial state /proc/iomem (before removal of memory block):

sys_get_robust_list() and compat_get_robust_list() use ptrace_may_access()
to check if the calling task is allowed to access another task's
robust_list pointer. This check is racy against a concurrent exec() in the
target process.
During exec(), a task may transition from a non-privileged binary to a
privileged one (e.g., setuid binary) and its credentials/memory mappings
may change. If get_robust_list() performs ptrace_may_access() before
this transition, it may erroneously allow access to sensitive information
after the target becomes privileged.
A racy access allows an attacker to exploit a window during which
ptrace_may_access() passes before a target process transitions to a
privileged state via exec().
For example, consider a non-privileged task T that is about to execute a
setuid-root binary. An attacker task A calls get_robust_list(T) while T
is still unprivileged. Since ptrace_may_access() checks permissions
based on current credentials, it succeeds. However, if T begins exec
immediately afterwards, it becomes privileged and may change its memory
mappings. Because get_robust_list() proceeds to access T->robust_list
without synchronizing with exec() it may read user-space pointers from a
now-privileged process.
This violates the intended post-exec access restrictions and could
expose sensitive memory addresses or be used as a primitive in a larger
exploit chain. Consequently, the race can lead to unauthorized
disclosure of information across privilege boundaries and poses a
potential security risk.
Take a read lock on signal->exec_update_lock prior to invoking
ptrace_may_access() and accessing the robust_list/compat_robust_list.
This ensures that the target task's exec state remains stable during the
check, allowing for consistent and synchronized validation of
credentials.

In this scenario futex_wait_requeue_pi() is able to leave without using
futex_q::lock_ptr for synchronization.
This can be prevented by reading futex_q::task before updating the
futex_q::requeue_state. A reference on the task_struct is not needed
because requeue_pi_wake_futex() is invoked with a spinlock_t held which
implies a RCU read section.
Even if T1 terminates immediately after, the task_struct will remain valid
during T2's wake_up_state(). A READ_ONCE on futex_q::task before
futex_requeue_pi_complete() is enough because it ensures that the variable
is read before the state is updated.
Read futex_q::task before updating the requeue state, use it for the
following wakeup.

A previous patch fixed a bug where new_prs should be assigned before
checking housekeeping conflicts. This patch addresses another potential
issue: the nocpu error check currently uses the xcpus which is not updated.
Although no issue has been observed so far, the check should be performed
using the new effective exclusive cpus.
The comment has been removed because the function returns an error if
nocpu checking fails, which is unrelated to the parent.

The 'isolcpus' parameter specified at boot time can be assigned to an
isolated partition. While it is valid put the 'isolcpus' in an isolated
partition, attempting to change a member cpuset to an isolated partition
will fail if the cpuset contains any 'isolcpus'.
For example, the system boots with 'isolcpus=9', and the following
configuration works correctly:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/
# mkdir test
# echo 1 > test/cpuset.cpus
# echo isolated > test/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated
# echo 9 > test/cpuset.cpus
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated
# cat test/cpuset.cpus
9
However, the following steps to convert a member cpuset to an isolated
partition will fail:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/
# mkdir test
# echo 9 > test/cpuset.cpus
# echo isolated > test/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated invalid (partition config conflicts with housekeeping setup)
The issue occurs because the new partition state (new_prs) is used for
validation against housekeeping constraints before it has been properly
updated. To resolve this, move the assignment of new_prs before the
housekeeping validation check when enabling a root partition.

Converting bpf_insn_successors() to use lookup table makes it ~1.5
times faster.
Also remove unnecessary conditionals:
- `idx + 1 < prog->len` is unnecessary because after check_cfg() all
jump targets are guaranteed to be within a program;
- `i == 0 || succ[0] != dst` is unnecessary because any client of
bpf_insn_successors() can handle duplicate edges:
- compute_live_registers()
- compute_scc()
Moving bpf_insn_successors() to liveness.c allows its inlining in
liveness.c:__update_stack_liveness().
Such inlining speeds up __update_stack_liveness() by ~40%.
bpf_insn_successors() is used in both verifier.c and liveness.c.
perf shows such move does not negatively impact users in verifier.c,
as these are executed only once before main varification pass.
Unlike __update_stack_liveness() which can be triggered multiple
times.

Allocate analysis instance:
- Add bpf_stack_liveness_{init,free}() calls to bpf_check().
Notify the instance about any stack reads and writes:
- Add bpf_mark_stack_write() call at every location where
REG_LIVE_WRITTEN is recorded for a stack slot.
- Add bpf_mark_stack_read() call at every location mark_reg_read() is
called.
- Both bpf_mark_stack_{read,write}() rely on
env->liveness->cur_instance callchain being in sync with
env->cur_state. It is possible to update env->liveness->cur_instance
every time a mark read/write is called, but that costs a hash table
lookup and is noticeable in the performance profile. Hence, manually
reset env->liveness->cur_instance whenever the verifier changes
env->cur_state call stack:
- call bpf_reset_live_stack_callchain() when the verifier enters a
subprogram;
- call bpf_update_live_stack() when the verifier exits a subprogram
(it implies the reset).
Make sure bpf_update_live_stack() is called for a callchain before
issuing liveness queries. And make sure that bpf_update_live_stack()
is called for any callee callchain first:
- Add bpf_update_live_stack() call at every location that processes
BPF_EXIT:
- exit from a subprogram;
- before pop_stack() call.
This makes sure that bpf_update_live_stack() is called for callee
callchains before caller callchains.
Make sure must_write marks are set to zero for instructions that
do not always access the stack:
- Wrap do_check_insn() with bpf_reset_stack_write_marks() /
bpf_commit_stack_write_marks() calls.
Any calls to bpf_mark_stack_write() are accumulated between this
pair of calls. If no bpf_mark_stack_write() calls were made
it means that the instruction does not access stack (at-least
on the current verification path) and it is important to record
this fact.
Finally, use bpf_live_stack_query_init() / bpf_stack_slot_alive()
to query stack liveness info.
The manual tracking of the correct order for callee/caller
bpf_update_live_stack() calls is a bit convoluted and may warrant some
automation in future revisions.

This commit adds a flow-sensitive, context-sensitive, path-insensitive
data flow analysis for live stack slots:
- flow-sensitive: uses program control flow graph to compute data flow
values;
- context-sensitive: collects data flow values for each possible call
chain in a program;
- path-insensitive: does not distinguish between separate control flow
graph paths reaching the same instruction.
Compared to the current path-sensitive analysis, this approach trades
some precision for not having to enumerate every path in the program.
This gives a theoretical capability to run the analysis before main
verification pass. See cover letter for motivation.
The basic idea is as follows:
- Data flow values indicate stack slots that might be read and stack
slots that are definitely written.
- Data flow values are collected for each
(call chain, instruction number) combination in the program.
- Within a subprogram, data flow values are propagated using control
flow graph.
- Data flow values are transferred from entry instructions of callee
subprograms to call sites in caller subprograms.
In other words, a tree of all possible call chains is constructed.
Each node of this tree represents a subprogram. Read and write marks
are collected for each instruction of each node. Live stack slots are
first computed for lower level nodes. Then, information about outer
stack slots that might be read or are definitely written by a
subprogram is propagated one level up, to the corresponding call
instructions of the upper nodes. Procedure repeats until root node is
processed.
In the absence of value range analysis, stack read/write marks are
collected during main verification pass, and data flow computation is
triggered each time verifier.c:states_equal() needs to query the
information.
Implementation details are documented in kernel/bpf/liveness.c.
Quantitative data about verification performance changes and memory
consumption is in the cover letter.

The next patch would require doing postorder traversal of individual
subprograms. Facilitate this by moving env->cfg.insn_postorder
computation from check_cfg() to a separate pass, as check_cfg()
descends into called subprograms (and it needs to, because of
merge_callee_effects() logic).
env->cfg.insn_postorder is used only by compute_live_registers(),
this function does not track cross subprogram dependencies,
thus the change does not affect it's operation.

Currently, KF_RCU_PROTECTED only applies to iterator APIs and that too
in a convoluted fashion: the presence of this flag on the kfunc is used
to set MEM_RCU in iterator type, and the lack of RCU protection results
in an error only later, once next() or destroy() methods are invoked on
the iterator. While there is no bug, this is certainly a bit
unintuitive, and makes the enforcement of the flag iterator specific.
In the interest of making this flag useful for other upcoming kfuncs,
e.g. scx_bpf_cpu_curr() [0][1], add enforcement for invoking the kfunc
in an RCU critical section in general.
This would also mean that iterator APIs using KF_RCU_PROTECTED will
error out earlier, instead of throwing an error for lack of RCU CS
protection when next() or destroy() methods are invoked.
In addition to this, if the kfuncs tagged KF_RCU_PROTECTED return a
pointer value, ensure that this pointer value is only usable in an RCU
critical section. There might be edge cases where the return value is
special and doesn't need to imply MEM_RCU semantics, but in general, the
assumption should hold for the majority of kfuncs, and we can revisit
things if necessary later.

Introduce the partition_cpus_change function to handle both regular CPU
set updates and exclusive CPU modifications, either of which may trigger
partition state changes. This generalized function will also be utilized
for exclusive CPU updates in subsequent patches.
With the introduction of compute_trialcs_excpus in a previous patch,
the trialcs->effective_xcpus field is now consistently computed and
maintained. Consequently, the legacy logic which assigned
**trialcs->allowed_cpus to a local 'xcpus' variable** when
trialcs->effective_xcpus was empty has been removed.
This removal is safe because when trialcs is not a partition member,
trialcs->effective_xcpus is now correctly populated with the intersection
of user_xcpus and the parent's effective_xcpus. This calculation inherently
covers the scenario previously handled by the removed code.

Refactor cpus_allowed_validate_change to handle the special case where
cpuset.cpus can be set even when violating partition sibling CPU
exclusivity rules. This differs from the general validation logic in
validate_change. Add a wrapper function to properly handle this
exceptional case.
The trialcs->prs_err field is cleared before performing validation checks
for both CPU changes and partition errors. If cpus_allowed_validate_change
fails its validation, trialcs->prs_err is set to PERR_NOTEXCL. If partition
validation fails, the specific error code returned by validate_partition
is assigned to trialcs->prs_err.
With the partition validation status now directly available through
trialcs->prs_err, the local boolean variable 'invalidate' becomes
redundant and can be safely removed.

The current implementation contains redundant handling for empty mask
inputs, as cpulist_parse() already properly handles these cases. This
refactoring introduces a new helper function parse_cpuset_cpulist() to
consolidate CPU list parsing logic and eliminate special-case checks for
empty inputs.
Additionally, the effective_xcpus computation for trial cpusets has been
simplified. Rather than computing effective_xcpus only when exclusive_cpus
is set or when the cpuset forms a valid partition, we now recalculate it
on every cpuset.cpus update. This approach ensures consistency and allows
removal of redundant effective_xcpus logic in subsequent patches.
The trial cpuset's effective_xcpus calculation follows two distinct cases:
1. For member cpusets: effective_xcpus is determined by the intersection
of cpuset->exclusive_cpus and the parent's effective_xcpus.
2. For non-member cpusets: effective_xcpus is derived from the intersection
of user_xcpus and the parent's effective_xcpus.

The compute_trialcs_excpus function specifically handles exclusive CPU

Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths.

softirqs are preemptible on PREEMPT_RT. There is synchronisation between
individual sections which disable bottom halves. This in turn means that
a forced threaded interrupt cannot preempt another forced threaded
interrupt. Instead it will PI-boost the other handler and wait for its
completion.
This is required because code within a softirq section is assumed to be
non-preemptible and may expect exclusive access to per-CPU resources
such as variables or pinned timers.
Code with such expectation has been identified and updated to use
local_lock_nested_bh() for locking of the per-CPU resource. This means the
softirq lock can be removed.
Disable the softirq synchronization, but add a new config switch
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK which allows to re-enable the synchronized
behavior in case that there are issues, which haven't been detected yet.
The softirq_ctrl.cnt accounting remains to let the NOHZ code know if

The tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() via tasklet_disable_in_atomic() is
provided for a few legacy tasklet users. The interface is used from
atomic context (which is either softirq or disabled preemption) on
non-PREEMPT_RT and relies on spinning until the tasklet callback
completes.
On PREEMPT_RT the context is never atomic but the busy polling logic
remains. It is possible that the thread invoking tasklet_unlock_spin_wait()
has higher priority than the tasklet. If both run on the same CPU the the
tasklet makes no progress and the thread trying to cancel the tasklet will
live-lock the system.
To avoid the lockup tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() uses local_bh_disable()/
enable() which utilizes the local_lock_t for synchronisation. This lock is
a central per-CPU BKL and about to be removed.
Solve this by acquire a lock in tasklet_action_common() which is held while
the tasklet's callback is invoked. This lock will be acquired from
tasklet_unlock_spin_wait() via tasklet_callback_cancel_wait_running().
After the tasklet completed tasklet_callback_sync_wait_running() drops the
lock and acquires it again. In order to avoid unlocking the lock even if
there is no cancel request, there is a cb_waiters counter which is
incremented during a cancel request. Blocking on the lock will PI-boost
the tasklet if needed, ensuring progress is made.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() can be called from ops.cpu_release() when a
CPU is taken by a higher scheduling class to give tasks queued to the
CPU's local DSQ a chance to be migrated somewhere else, instead of
waiting indefinitely for that CPU to become available again.
In doing so, we decided to skip migration-disabled tasks, under the
assumption that they cannot be migrated anyway.
However, when a higher scheduling class preempts a CPU, the running task
is always inserted at the head of the local DSQ as a migration-disabled
task. This means it is always skipped by scx_bpf_reenqueue_local(), and
ends up being confined to the same CPU even if that CPU is heavily
contended by other higher scheduling class tasks.
As an example, let's consider the following scenario:
$ schedtool -a 0,1, -e yes > /dev/null
$ sudo schedtool -F -p 99 -a 0, -e \
stress-ng -c 1 --cpu-load 99 --cpu-load-slice 1000
The first task (SCHED_EXT) can run on CPU0 or CPU1. The second task
(SCHED_FIFO) is pinned to CPU0 and consumes ~99% of it. If the SCHED_EXT
task initially runs on CPU0, it will remain there because it always sees
CPU0 as "idle" in the short gaps left by the RT task, resulting in ~1%
utilization while CPU1 stays idle:
0[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 8[ 0.0%]
1[ 0.0%] 9[ 0.0%]

975 arighi 20 0 R 0 1.0 0.0 0:26.32 yes
By allowing scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to re-enqueue migration-disabled
tasks, the scheduler can choose to migrate them to other CPUs (CPU1 in
this case) via ops.enqueue(), leading to better CPU utilization:
0[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 8[ 0.0%]
1[||||||||||||||||||||||100.0%] 9[ 0.0%]
2[ 0.0%] 10[ 0.0%]

555 arighi 20 0 R 1 100.0 0.0 0:28.67 yes
It's debatable whether per-CPU tasks should be re-enqueued as well, but
doing so is probably safer: the scheduler can recognize re-enqueued
tasks through the %SCX_ENQ_REENQ flag, reassess their placement, and
either put them back at the head of the local DSQ or let another task
attempt to take the CPU.
This also prevents giving per-CPU tasks an implicit priority boost,
which would otherwise make them more likely to reclaim CPUs preempted by
higher scheduling classes.

There is no compatibility breakage here, since changing the namespace
against which the lookup is being done to the root cgroup namespace only
permits a wider set of lookups to succeed now. The cgroup IDs across

When doing load balance and the target cfs_rq is in throttled hierarchy,
whether to allow balancing there is a question.
The good side to allow balancing is: if the target CPU is idle or less
loaded and the being balanced task is holding some kernel resources,
then it seems a good idea to balance the task there and let the task get
the CPU earlier and release kernel resources sooner. The bad part is, if
the task is not holding any kernel resources, then the balance seems not
that useful.
While theoretically it's debatable, a performance test[0] which involves
200 cgroups and each cgroup runs hackbench(20 sender, 20 receiver) in
pipe mode showed a performance degradation on AMD Genoa when allowing
load balance to throttled cfs_rq. Analysis[1] showed hackbench doesn't
like task migration across LLC boundary. For this reason, add a check in
can_migrate_task() to forbid balancing to a cfs_rq that is in throttled

With the introduction of task based throttle model, task in a throttled
hierarchy is allowed to continue to run till it gets throttled on its
ret2user path.
For this reason, remove those throttled_hierarchy() checks in the
following functions so that those tasks can get their turn as normal
tasks: dequeue_entities(), check_preempt_wakeup_fair() and
yield_to_task_fair().
The benefit of doing it this way is: if those tasks gets the chance to
run earlier and if they hold any kernel resources, they can release
those resources earlier. The downside is, if they don't hold any kernel
resouces, all they can do is to throttle themselves on their way back to
user space so the favor to let them run seems not that useful and for
check_preempt_wakeup_fair(), that favor may be bad for curr.
K Prateek Nayak pointed out prio_changed_fair() can send a throttled
task to check_preempt_wakeup_fair(), further tests showed the affinity
change path from move_queued_task() can also send a throttled task to
check_preempt_wakeup_fair(), that's why the check of task_is_throttled()
in that function.

With task based throttle model, tasks in a throttled hierarchy are
allowed to continue to run if they are running in kernel mode. For this
reason, PELT clock is not stopped for these cfs_rqs in throttled
hierarchy when they still have tasks running or queued.
Since PELT clock is not stopped, whether to allow update_cfs_group()
doing its job for cfs_rqs which are in throttled hierarchy but still
have tasks running/queued is a question.
The good side is, continue to run update_cfs_group() can get these
cfs_rq entities with an up2date weight and that up2date weight can be
useful to derive an accurate load for the CPU as well as ensure fairness
if multiple tasks of different cgroups are running on the same CPU.
OTOH, as Benjamin Segall pointed: when unthrottle comes around the most
likely correct distribution is the distribution we had at the time of
throttle.
In reality, either way may not matter that much if tasks in throttled
hierarchy don't run in kernel mode for too long. But in case that
happens, let these cfs_rq entities have an up2date weight seems a good
thing to do.

Before task based throttle model, propagating load will stop at a
throttled cfs_rq and that propagate will happen on unthrottle time by
update_load_avg().
Now that there is no update_load_avg() on unthrottle for throttled
cfs_rq and all load tracking is done by task related operations, let the
propagate happen immediately.
While at it, add a comment to explain why cfs_rqs that are not affected
by throttle have to be added to leaf cfs_rq list in
propagate_entity_cfs_rq() per my understanding of commit 0258bdfaff
("sched/fair: Fix unfairness caused by missing load decay").

Argument 'p' of enabled_monitors_next() is not a pointer to struct
rv_monitor, it is actually a pointer to the list_head inside struct
rv_monitor. Therefore it is wrong to cast 'p' to struct rv_monitor *.
This wrong type cast has been there since the beginning. But it still
worked because the list_head was the first field in struct rv_monitor_def.
This is no longer true since commit 24cbfe18d5 ("rv: Merge struct
rv_monitor_def into struct rv_monitor") moved the list_head, and this wrong
type cast became a functional problem.
Properly use container_of() instead.

Patch series "efi: Fix EFI boot with kexec handover (KHO)", v3.
This patch series fixes a kernel panic that occurs when booting with both
EFI and KHO (Kexec HandOver) enabled.
The issue arises because EFI's `reserve_regions()` clears all memory
regions with `memblock_remove(0, PHYS_ADDR_MAX)` before rebuilding them
from EFI data. This destroys KHO scratch regions that were set up early
during device tree scanning, causing a panic as the kernel has no valid
memory regions for early allocations.
The first patch introduces `is_kho_boot()` to allow early boot components
to reliably detect if the kernel was booted via KHO-enabled kexec. The
existing `kho_is_enabled()` only checks the command line and doesn't
verify if an actual KHO FDT was passed.
The second patch modifies EFI's `reserve_regions()` to selectively remove
only non-KHO memory regions when KHO is active, preserving the critical
scratch regions while still allowing EFI to rebuild its memory map.
This patch (of 3):
During early initialisation, after a kexec, other components, like EFI
need to know if a KHO enabled kexec is performed. The `kho_is_enabled`
function is not enough as in the early stages, it only reflects whether
the cmdline has KHO enabled, not if an actual KHO FDT exists.
Extend the KHO API with `is_kho_boot()` to provide a way for components to
check if a KHO enabled kexec is performed.

crash_exclude_mem_range seems to be a simple function but there have been
multiple attempts to fix it,
- commit a2e9a95d21 ("kexec: Improve & fix crash_exclude_mem_range()
to handle overlapping ranges")
- commit 6dff315972 ("crash_core: fix and simplify the logic of
crash_exclude_mem_range()")
So add a set of unit tests to verify the correctness of current
implementation. Shall we change the function in the future, the unit
tests can also help prevent any regression. For example, we may make the
function smarter by allocating extra crash_mem range on demand thus there
is no need for the caller to foresee any memory range split or address
-ENOMEM failure.
The testing strategy is to verify the correctness of base case. The
base case is there is one to-be-excluded range A and one existing range
B. Then we can exhaust all possibilities of the position of A regarding
B. For example, here are two combinations,
Case: A is completely inside B (causes split)
Original: [----B----]
Exclude: {--A--}
Result: [B1] .. [B2]
Case: A overlaps B's left part
Original: [----B----]
Exclude: {---A---}
Result: [..B..]
In theory we can prove the correctness by induction,
- Base case: crash_exclude_mem_range is correct in the case where n=1
(n is the number of existing ranges).
- Inductive step: If crash_exclude_mem_range is correct for n=k
existing ranges, then the it's also correct for n=k+1 ranges.
But for the sake of simplicity, simply use unit tests to cover the base
case together with two regression tests.
Note most of the exclude_single_range_test() code is generated by Google
Gemini with some small tweaks. The function specification, function body
and the exhausting test strategy are presented as prompts.

when it has already been explicitly printed before.
Do not change the legacy code which prints the backtrace in various

It will always be visible in the crash dump.
Instead, remember when the backtrace was printed, and skip it when dumping

This issue was found when an EFI pstore was configured for kdump logging
with the NMI hard lockup detector enabled. The efi-pstore write operation
was slow, and with a large number of logs, the pstore dump callback within
kmsg_dump() took a long time.
This delay triggered the NMI watchdog, leading to a nested panic. The
call flow demonstrates how the secondary panic caused an
emergency_restart() to be triggered before the initial pstore operation
could finish, leading to a failure to dump the logs:
real panic() {
kmsg_dump() {
...
pstore_dump() {
start_dump();
... // long time operation triggers NMI watchdog
nmi panic() {
...
emergency_restart(); // pstore unfinished
}
...
finish_dump(); // never reached
}
}
}
Both watchdog_buddy_check_hardlockup() and watchdog_overflow_callback()
may trigger during a panic. This can lead to recursive panic handling.
Add panic_in_progress() checks so watchdog activity is skipped once a
panic has begun.
This prevents recursive panic and keeps the panic path more reliable.

crash_kexec() had its own code to exclude parallel execution by setting
panic_cpu. This is already handled by panic_try_start(). Switch to
panic_try_start() to remove the duplication and keep the logic consistent.

Patch series "panic: introduce panic status function family", v2.
This series introduces a family of helper functions to manage panic state
and updates existing code to use them.
Before this series, panic state helpers were scattered and inconsistent.
For example, panic_in_progress() was defined in printk/printk.c, not in
panic.c or panic.h. As a result, developers had to look in unexpected
places to understand or re-use panic state logic. Other checks were open-
coded, duplicating logic across panic, crash, and watchdog paths.
The new helpers centralize the functionality in panic.c/panic.h:
- panic_try_start()
- panic_reset()
- panic_in_progress()
- panic_on_this_cpu()
- panic_on_other_cpu()
Patches 1–8 add the helpers and convert panic/crash and printk/nbcon
code to use them.
Patch 9 fixes a bug in the watchdog subsystem by skipping checks when a
panic is in progress, avoiding interference with the panic CPU.
Together, this makes panic state handling simpler, more discoverable, and
more robust.
This patch (of 9):
This patch introduces four new helper functions to abstract the management
of the panic_cpu variable. These functions will be used in subsequent
patches to refactor existing code.
The direct use of panic_cpu can be error-prone and ambiguous, as it
requires manual checks to determine which CPU is handling the panic. The
new helpers clarify intent:
panic_try_start():
Atomically sets the current CPU as the panicking CPU.
panic_reset():
Reset panic_cpu to PANIC_CPU_INVALID.
panic_in_progress():
Checks if a panic has been triggered.
panic_on_this_cpu():
Returns true if the current CPU is the panic originator.
panic_on_other_cpu():
Returns true if a panic is on another CPU.
This change lays the groundwork for improved code readability
and robustness in the panic handling subsystem.

Unlike sys_clone(), these helpers have only in kernel users which should
pass the correct "flags" argument. lower_32_bits(flags) just adds the
unnecessary confusion and doesn't allow to use the CLONE_ flags which
don't fit into 32 bits.
create_io_thread() looks especially confusing because:
- "flags" is a compile-time constant, so lower_32_bits() simply
has no effect
- .exit_signal = (lower_32_bits(flags) & CSIGNAL) is harmless but
doesn't look right, copy_process(CLONE_THREAD) will ignore this
argument anyway.
None of these helpers actually need CLONE_UNTRACED or "& ~CSIGNAL", but
their presence does not add any confusion and improves code clarity.

Since we use 16-bit precision, the raw data will undergo integer division,
which may sometimes result in data loss. This can lead to slightly
inaccurate CPU utilization calculations. Under normal circumstances, this
isn't an issue. However, when CPU utilization reaches 100%, the
calculated result might exceed 100%. For example, with raw data like the
following:
sample_period 400000134 new_stat 83648414036 old_stat 83247417494
sample_period=400000134/2^24=23
new_stat=83648414036/2^24=4985
old_stat=83247417494/2^24=4961
util=105%
Below log will output：
CPU#3 Utilization every 0s during lockup:
#1: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle
#2: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle
#3: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
#4: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle
#5: 0% system, 0% softirq, 105% hardirq, 0% idle
To avoid confusion, we enforce a 100% display cap when calculations exceed
this threshold.
We also round to the nearest multiple of 16.8 milliseconds to improve the
accuracy.

KCOV Remote uses two separate memory buffers, one private to the kernel
space (kcov_remote_areas) and the second one shared between user and
kernel space (kcov->area). After every pair of kcov_remote_start() and
kcov_remote_stop(), the coverage data collected in the kcov_remote_areas
is copied to kcov->area so the user can read the collected coverage data.
This memcpy() is located in kcov_move_area().
The load/store pattern on the kernel-side [1] is:
```
/* dst_area === kcov->area, dst_area[0] is where the count is stored */
dst_len = READ_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area);
...
memcpy(dst_entries, src_entries, ...);
...
WRITE_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area, dst_len + entries_moved);
```
And for the user [2]:
```
/* cover is equivalent to kcov->area */
n = __atomic_load_n(&cover[0], __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
```
Without a write-memory barrier, the atomic load for the user can
potentially read fresh values of the count stored at cover[0], but
continue to read stale coverage data from the buffer itself. Hence, we
recommend adding a write-memory barrier between the memcpy() and the
WRITE_ONCE() in kcov_move_area().

Currently, the kexec_file_load syscall on x86 does not support passing a
device tree blob to the new kernel. Some embedded x86 systems use device
trees. On these systems, failing to pass a device tree to the new kernel
causes a boot failure.
To add support for this, we copy the behavior of ARM64 and PowerPC and
copy the current boot's device tree blob for use in the new kernel. We do
this on x86 by passing the device tree blob as a setup_data entry in
accordance with the x86 boot protocol.
This behavior is gated behind the KEXEC_FILE_FORCE_DTB flag.

When specifying fixed sized scratch areas, the parser only parses the
three scratch sizes and ignores the rest of the argument. This means the
argument can have any bogus trailing characters.
For example, "kho_scratch=256M,512M,512Mfoobar" results in successful
parsing:
[ 0.000000] KHO: scratch areas: lowmem: 256MiB global: 512MiB pernode: 512MiB
It is generally a good idea to parse arguments as strictly as possible.
In addition, if bogus trailing characters are allowed in the kho_scratch
argument, it is possible that some people might end up using them and
later extensions to the argument format will cause unexpected breakages.
Make sure the argument is fully consumed after all three scratch sizes are
parsed. With this change, the bogus argument
"kho_scratch=256M,512M,512Mfoobar" results in:
[ 0.000000] Malformed early option 'kho_scratch'

Patch series "prctl: extend PR_SET_THP_DISABLE to only provide THPs when
advised", v5.
This will allow individual processes to opt-out of THP = "always" into THP
= "madvise", without affecting other workloads on the system. This has
been extensively discussed on the mailing list and has been summarized
very well by David in the first patch which also includes the links to
alternatives, please refer to the first patch commit message for the
motivation for this series.
Patch 1 adds the PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED flag to implement this,
along with the MMF changes.
Patch 2 is a cleanup patch for tva_flags that will allow the forced
collapse case to be transmitted to vma_thp_disabled (which is done in
patch 3).
Patch 4 adds documentation for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE/PR_GET_THP_DISABLE.
Patches 6-7 implement the selftests for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE for completely
disabling THPs (old behaviour) and only enabling it at advise
(PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED).
This patch (of 7):
People want to make use of more THPs, for example, moving from the "never"
system policy to "madvise", or from "madvise" to "always".
While this is great news for every THP desperately waiting to get
allocated out there, apparently there are some workloads that require a
bit of care during that transition: individual processes may need to
opt-out from this behavior for various reasons, and this should be
permitted without needing to make all other workloads on the system
similarly opt-out.
The following scenarios are imaginable:
(1) Switch from "none" system policy to "madvise"/"always", but keep THPs
disabled for selected workloads.
(2) Stay at "none" system policy, but enable THPs for selected
workloads, making only these workloads use the "madvise" or "always"
policy.
(3) Switch from "madvise" system policy to "always", but keep the
"madvise" policy for selected workloads: allocate THPs only when
advised.
(4) Stay at "madvise" system policy, but enable THPs even when not advised
for selected workloads -- "always" policy.
Once can emulate (2) through (1), by setting the system policy to
"madvise"/"always" while disabling THPs for all processes that don't want
THPs. It requires configuring all workloads, but that is a user-space
problem to sort out.
(4) can be emulated through (3) in a similar way.
Back when (1) was relevant in the past, as people started enabling THPs,
we added PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, so relevant workloads that were not ready yet
(i.e., used by Redis) were able to just disable THPs completely. Redis
still implements the option to use this interface to disable THPs
completely.
With PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, we added a way to force-disable THPs for a
workload -- a process, including fork+exec'ed process hierarchy. That
essentially made us support (1): simply disable THPs for all workloads
that are not ready for THPs yet, while still enabling THPs system-wide.
The quest for handling (3) and (4) started, but current approaches
(completely new prctl, options to set other policies per process,
alternatives to prctl -- mctrl, cgroup handling) don't look particularly
promising. Likely, the future will use bpf or something similar to
implement better policies, in particular to also make better decisions
about THP sizes to use, but this will certainly take a while as that work
just started.
Long story short: a simple enable/disable is not really suitable for the
future, so we're not willing to add completely new toggles.
While we could emulate (3)+(4) through (1)+(2) by simply disabling THPs
completely for these processes, this is a step backwards, because these
processes can no longer allocate THPs in regions where THPs were
explicitly advised: regions flagged as VM_HUGEPAGE. Apparently, that
imposes a problem for relevant workloads, because "not THPs" is certainly
worse than "THPs only when advised".
Could we simply relax PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, to "disable THPs unless not
explicitly advised by the app through MAD_HUGEPAGE"? *maybe*, but this
would change the documented semantics quite a bit, and the versatility to
use it for debugging purposes, so I am not 100% sure that is what we want
-- although it would certainly be much easier.
So instead, as an easy way forward for (3) and (4), add an option to
make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE disable *less* THPs for a process.
In essence, this patch:
(A) Adds PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED, to be used as a flag in arg3
of prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE) when disabling THPs (arg2 != 0).
prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, 1, PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED).
(B) Makes prctl(PR_GET_THP_DISABLE) return 3 if
PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED was set while disabling.
Previously, it would return 1 if THPs were disabled completely. Now
it returns the set flags as well: 3 if PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED
was set.
(C) Renames MMF_DISABLE_THP to MMF_DISABLE_THP_COMPLETELY, to express
the semantics clearly.
Fortunately, there are only two instances outside of prctl() code.
(D) Adds MMF_DISABLE_THP_EXCEPT_ADVISED to express "no THP except for VMAs
with VM_HUGEPAGE" -- essentially "thp=madvise" behavior
Fortunately, we only have to extend vma_thp_disabled().
(E) Indicates "THP_enabled: 0" in /proc/pid/status only if THPs are
disabled completely
Only indicating that THPs are disabled when they are really disabled
completely, not only partially.
For now, we don't add another interface to obtained whether THPs
are disabled partially (PR_THP_DISABLE_EXCEPT_ADVISED was set). If
ever required, we could add a new entry.
The documented semantics in the man page for PR_SET_THP_DISABLE "is
inherited by a child created via fork(2) and is preserved across
execve(2)" is maintained. This behavior, for example, allows for
disabling THPs for a workload through the launching process (e.g., systemd
where we fork() a helper process to then exec()).
For now, MADV_COLLAPSE will *fail* in regions without VM_HUGEPAGE and
VM_NOHUGEPAGE. As MADV_COLLAPSE is a clear advise that user space thinks
a THP is a good idea, we'll enable that separately next (requiring a bit
of cleanup first).
There is currently not way to prevent that a process will not issue
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE itself to re-enable THP. There are not really known
users for re-enabling it, and it's against the purpose of the original
interface. So if ever required, we could investigate just forbidding to
re-enable them, or make this somehow configurable.

As part of the effort to move to mm->flags becoming a bitmap field,
convert existing users to making use of the mm_flags_*() accessors which
will, when the conversion is complete, be the only means of accessing
mm_struct flags.

We now need to account for flag initialisation on fork. We retain the
existing logic as much as we can, but dub the existing flag mask legacy.
These flags are therefore required to fit in the first 32-bits of the
flags field.
However, further flag propagation upon fork can be implemented in
mm_init() on a per-flag basis.
We ensure we clear the entire bitmap prior to setting it, and use
__mm_flags_get_word() and __mm_flags_set_word() to manipulate these legacy
fields efficiently.

Patch series "kho: fixes and cleanups", v3.
These are small KHO and KHO test fixes and cleanups.
This patch (of 3):
Parsing of kho_scratch parameter treats zero size as an invalid value,
although it should be fine for user to request zero sized scratch area for
some types if scratch memory, when for example there is no need to create
scratch area in the low memory.
Treat zero as a valid value for a scratch area size but reject kho_scratch
parameter that defines no scratch memory at all.

Goto-san reported confusing pgpromote statistics where the
pgpromote_success count significantly exceeded pgpromote_candidate.
On a system with three nodes (nodes 0-1: DRAM 4GB, node 2: NVDIMM 4GB):
# Enable demotion only
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled
numactl -m 0-1 memhog -r200 3500M >/dev/null &
pid=$!
sleep 2
numactl memhog -r100 2500M >/dev/null &
sleep 10
kill -9 $pid # terminate the 1st memhog
# Enable promotion
echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing
After a few seconds, we observeed `pgpromote_candidate < pgpromote_success`
$ grep -e pgpromote /proc/vmstat
pgpromote_success 2579
pgpromote_candidate 0
In this scenario, after terminating the first memhog, the conditions for
pgdat_free_space_enough() are quickly met, and triggers promotion.
However, these migrated pages are only counted for in PGPROMOTE_SUCCESS,
not in PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE.
To solve these confusing statistics, introduce PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE_NRL to
count the missed promotion pages. And also, not counting these pages into
PGPROMOTE_CANDIDATE is to avoid changing the existing algorithm or
performance of the promotion rate limit.

rseq_need_restart() reads and clears task::rseq_event_mask with preemption
disabled to guard against the scheduler.
But membarrier() uses an IPI and sets the PREEMPT bit in the event mask
from the IPI, which leaves that RMW operation unprotected.
Use guard(irq) if CONFIG_MEMBARRIER is enabled to fix that.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

system_unbound_wq should be the default workqueue so as not to enforce

Adding system_dfl_wq to encourage its use when unbound work should be used.
queue_work() / queue_delayed_work() / mod_delayed_work() will now use the

Introduce new DMA mapping functions dma_map_phys() and dma_unmap_phys()
that operate directly on physical addresses instead of page+offset
parameters. This provides a more efficient interface for drivers that
already have physical addresses available.
The new functions are implemented as the primary mapping layer, with
the existing dma_map_page_attrs()/dma_map_resource() and
dma_unmap_page_attrs()/dma_unmap_resource() functions converted to simple
wrappers around the phys-based implementations.
In case dma_map_page_attrs(), the struct page is converted to physical
address with help of page_to_phys() function and dma_map_resource()
provides physical address as is together with addition of DMA_ATTR_MMIO
attribute.
The old page-based API is preserved in mapping.c to ensure that existing
code won't be affected by changing EXPORT_SYMBOL to EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
variant for dma_*map_phys().

Make dma_map_page_attrs() and dma_map_page_attrs() respect
DMA_ATTR_MMIO.
DMA_ATR_MMIO makes the functions behave the same as
dma_(un)map_resource():
- No swiotlb is possible
- Legacy dma_ops arches use ops->map_resource()
- No kmsan
- No arch_dma_map_phys_direct()
The prior patches have made the internal functions called here
support DMA_ATTR_MMIO.
This is also preparation for turning dma_map_resource() into an inline
calling dma_map_phys(DMA_ATTR_MMIO) to consolidate the flows.

Architecture-specific functions arch_dma_map_page_direct() and
arch_dma_unmap_page_direct() are similarly renamed to
arch_dma_map_phys_direct() and arch_dma_unmap_phys_direct().
The is_pci_p2pdma_page() checks are replaced with DMA_ATTR_MMIO checks
to allow integration with dma_direct_map_resource and dma_direct_map_phys()
is extended to support MMIO path either.

Rename the IOMMU DMA mapping functions to better reflect their actual
calling convention. The functions iommu_dma_map_page() and
iommu_dma_unmap_page() are renamed to iommu_dma_map_phys() and
iommu_dma_unmap_phys() respectively, as they already operate on physical
addresses rather than page structures.
The calling convention changes from accepting (struct page *page,
unsigned long offset) to (phys_addr_t phys), which eliminates the need
for page-to-physical address conversion within the functions. This
renaming prepares for the broader DMA API conversion from page-based
to physical address-based mapping throughout the kernel.
All callers are updated to pass physical addresses directly, including
dma_map_page_attrs(), scatterlist mapping functions, and DMA page
allocation helpers. The change simplifies the code by removing the
page_to_phys() + offset calculation that was previously done inside
the IOMMU functions.

Convert the DMA debug infrastructure from page-based to physical address-based
mapping as a preparation to rely on physical address for DMA mapping routines.
The refactoring renames debug_dma_map_page() to debug_dma_map_phys() and
changes its signature to accept a phys_addr_t parameter instead of struct page
and offset. Similarly, debug_dma_unmap_page() becomes debug_dma_unmap_phys().
A new dma_debug_phy type is introduced to distinguish physical address mappings
from other debug entry types. All callers throughout the codebase are updated
to pass physical addresses directly, eliminating the need for page-to-physical
conversion in the debug layer.
This refactoring eliminates the need to convert between page pointers and
physical addresses in the debug layer, making the code more efficient and
consistent with the DMA mapping API's physical address focus.

The fault handlers receive the 32 bit address in the arena region so
the upper 32 bits of user_vm_start is added to it before printing the

This shows that the skb allocated in audit_log_start() and queued

In audit_log_end(), each skb is dequeued from skb_list and passed
to __audit_log_end(). However, when the audit rate limit is exceeded,
__audit_log_end() simply prints "rate limit exceeded" and returns
without processing the skb. Since the skb is already removed from
skb_list, audit_buffer_free() cannot free it later, leading to a
memory leak.
Fix this by freeing the skb when the rate limit is exceeded.

As now __GFP_NOWARN is part of __GFP_NOWAIT, it can be removed from kmalloc
as it is redundant.
- Use copy_from_user_nofault() instead of _inatomic() for trace markers
The trace_marker files are written to to allow user space to quickly write
into the tracing ring buffer. Back in 2016, the get_user_pages_fast() and
the kmap() logic was replaced by a __copy_from_user_inatomic(). But the
_inatomic() is somewhat a misnomer, as if the data being read faults, it can
cause a schedule. This is not something you want to do in an atomic context.
Since the time this was added, copy_from_user_nofault() was added which is
what is actually needed here. Replace the inatomic() with the nofault().
- Fix the assembly markup in the ftrace direct sample code
The ftrace direct sample code (which is also used for selftests), had the
size directive between the "leave" and the "ret" instead of after the ret.
This caused objtool to think the code was unreachable.
- Only call unregister_pm_notifier() on outer most fgraph registration
There was an error path in register_ftrace_graph() that did not call
unregister_pm_notifier() on error, so it was added in the error path.
The problem with that fix, is that register_pm_notifier() is only called by
the initial user of fgraph. If that succeeds, but another fgraph
registration were to fail, then unregister_pm_notifier() would be called
incorrectly.
- Fix a crash in osnoise when zero size cpumask is passed in
If a zero size CPU mask is passed in, the kmalloc() would return
ZERO_SIZE_PTR which is not checked, and the code would continue thinking it
had real memory and crash. If zero is passed in as the size of the write,
simply return 0.
- Fix possible warning in trace_pid_write()
If while processing a series of numbers passed to the "set_event_pid" file,
and one of the updates fails to allocate (triggered by a fault injection),
it can cause a warning to trigger. Check the return value of the call to
trace_pid_list_set() and break out early with an error code if it fails.

Commit 12ffc3b151 ("PM: Restrict swap use to later in the suspend
sequence") incorrectly removed a pm_restrict_gfp_mask() call from
hibernation_snapshot(), so memory allocations involving swap are not
prevented from being carried out in this code path any more which may
lead to serious breakage.
The symptoms of such breakage have become visible after adding a
shrink_shmem_memory() call to hibernation_snapshot() in commit
2640e81947 ("PM: hibernate: shrink shmem pages after dev_pm_ops.prepare()")
which caused this problem to be much more likely to manifest itself.
However, since commit 2640e81947 was initially present in the DRM

issue were not visible until merge commit 260f6f4fda ("Merge tag

that exposed it through an entirely reasonable merge conflict

The static usage pattern of creating a cgroup, enabling controllers,
and then seeding it with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP doesn't require write
locking cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and thus doesn't benefit from this
patch.
To avoid affecting other users, the per threadgroup rwsem is only used
when the favordynmods is enabled.
As computer hardware advances, modern systems are typically equipped
with many CPU cores and large amounts of memory, enabling the deployment
of numerous applications. On such systems, container creation and
deletion become frequent operations, making cgroup process migration no
longer a cold path. This leads to noticeable contention with common
process operations such as fork, exec, and exit.
To alleviate the contention between cgroup process migration and
operations like process fork, this patch modifies lock to take the write
lock on signal_struct->group_rwsem when writing pid to
cgroup.procs/threads instead of holding a global write lock.
Cgroup process migration has historically relied on
signal_struct->group_rwsem to protect thread group integrity. In commit
<1ed1328792ff> ("sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with
a global percpu_rwsem"), this was changed to a global
cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem. The advantage of using a global lock was
simplified handling of process group migrations. This patch retains the
use of the global lock for protecting process group migration, while
reducing contention by using per thread group lock during
cgroup.procs/threads writes.
The locking behavior is as follows:
write cgroup.procs/threads | process fork,exec,exit | process group migration
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cgroup_lock() | down_read(&g_rwsem) | cgroup_lock()
down_write(&p_rwsem) | down_read(&p_rwsem) | down_write(&g_rwsem)
critical section | critical section | critical section
up_write(&p_rwsem) | up_read(&p_rwsem) | up_write(&g_rwsem)
cgroup_unlock() | up_read(&g_rwsem) | cgroup_unlock()
g_rwsem denotes cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem, p_rwsem denotes
signal_struct->group_rwsem.
This patch eliminates contention between cgroup migration and fork
operations for threads that belong to different thread groups, thereby
reducing the long-tail latency of cgroup migrations and lowering system
load.
With this patch, under heavy fork and exec interference, the long-tail
latency of cgroup migration has been reduced from milliseconds to
microseconds. Under heavy cgroup migration interference, the multi-CPU
score of the spawn test case in UnixBench increased by 9%.

Later patches will introduce a new parameter `task` to
cgroup_attach_lock, thus adjusting the position of cgroup_attach_lock
within cgroup_procs_write_start.
Between obtaining the threadgroup leader via PID and acquiring the
cgroup attach lock, the threadgroup leader may change, which could lead
to incorrect cgroup migration. Therefore, after acquiring the cgroup
attach lock, we check whether the threadgroup leader has changed, and if
so, retry the operation.

Change this to use cpumask_var_t and allocate it dynamically when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is set.
The variable has to be released via a KUnit action wrapper so that it is
freed when the test fails and gets aborted. The parameter type is hardcoded
to "struct cpumask *" because the macro KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER()
does not accept an array. But the function does nothing when
CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is not set anyway.

The intel_pstate driver manages CPU capacity changes itself and it does
not need an update of the capacity of all CPUs in the system to be
carried out after registering a PD.
Moreover, in some configurations (for instance, an SMT-capable
hybrid x86 system booted with nosmt in the kernel command line) the
em_check_capacity_update() call at the end of em_dev_register_perf_domain()
always fails and reschedules itself to run once again in 1 s, so
effectively it runs in vain every 1 s forever.
To address this, introduce a new variant of em_dev_register_perf_domain(),
called em_dev_register_pd_no_update(), that does not invoke
em_check_capacity_update(), and make intel_pstate use it instead of the
original.

The above was reproduced on bpf-next (b338cf849e) by modifying
./tools/sched_ext/scx_flatcg.bpf.c to call bpf_timer_init() during
ops.runnable(), and hacking the memcg accounting code a bit to make
a bpf_timer_init() call more likely to raise an MEMCG_MAX event.
We have also run into other similar variants (both internally and on
bpf-next), including double-acquiring cgroup_file_kn_lock, the same
worker_pool::lock, etc.
As suggested by Shakeel, fix this by using __GFP_HIGH instead of
GFP_ATOMIC in __bpf_async_init(), so that e.g. if try_charge_memcg()
raises an MEMCG_MAX event, we call __memcg_memory_event() with
@allow_spinning=false and avoid calling cgroup_file_notify() there.

Currently, out of all 3 types of waiters in the rqspinlock slow path
(i.e., pending bit waiter, wait queue head waiter, and wait queue
non-head waiter), only the pending bit waiter and wait queue head
waiters apply deadlock checks and a timeout on their waiting loop. The
assumption here was that the wait queue head's forward progress would be
sufficient to identify cases where the lock owner or pending bit waiter
is stuck, and non-head waiters relying on the head waiter would prove to
be sufficient for their own forward progress.
However, the head waiter itself can be preempted by a non-head waiter
for the same lock (AA) or a different lock (ABBA) in a manner that
impedes its forward progress. In such a case, non-head waiters not
performing deadlock and timeout checks becomes insufficient, and the
system can enter a state of lockup.
This is typically not a concern with non-NMI lock acquisitions, as lock
holders which in run in different contexts (IRQ, non-IRQ) use "irqsave"
variants of the lock APIs, which naturally excludes such lock holders
from preempting one another on the same CPU.
It might seem likely that a similar case may occur for rqspinlock when
programs are attached to contention tracepoints (begin, end), however,
these tracepoints either precede the enqueue into the wait queue, or
succeed it, therefore cannot be used to preempt a head waiter's waiting
loop.
We must still be careful against nested kprobe and fentry programs that
may attach to the middle of the head's waiting loop to stall forward
progress and invoke another rqspinlock acquisition that proceeds as a
non-head waiter. To this end, drop CC_FLAGS_FTRACE from the rqspinlock.o
object file.
For now, this issue is resolved by falling back to a repeated trylock on
the lock word from NMI context, while performing the deadlock checks to
break out early in case forward progress is impossible, and use the
timeout as a final fallback.
A more involved fix to terminate the queue when such a condition occurs
will be made as a follow up. A selftest to stress this aspect of nested
NMI/non-NMI locking attempts will be added in a subsequent patch to the
bpf-next tree when this fix lands and trees are synchronized.

Stanislav reported that in bpf_crypto_crypt() the destination dynptr's
size is not validated to be at least as large as the source dynptr's
size before calling into the crypto backend with 'len = src_len'. This
can result in an OOB write when the destination is smaller than the
source.
Concretely, in mentioned function, psrc and pdst are both linear
buffers fetched from each dynptr:
psrc = __bpf_dynptr_data(src, src_len);
[...]
pdst = __bpf_dynptr_data_rw(dst, dst_len);
[...]
err = decrypt ?
ctx->type->decrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv) :
ctx->type->encrypt(ctx->tfm, psrc, pdst, src_len, piv);
The crypto backend expects pdst to be large enough with a src_len length
that can be written. Add an additional src_len > dst_len check and bail
out if it's the case. Note that these kfuncs are accessible under root
privileges only.

A typical set of messages that gets printed as a result of the clocksource
watchdog finding the TSC unstable usually does not contain messages
indicating CPUs being ahead of or behind the CPU from which the check is
carried out. That fact suggests that the TSC does not experience time skew
between CPUs (if the clocksource.verify_n_cpus parameter is set to a
negative value) but quantitative information is missing.
The cs_nsec_max value printed by the "CPU %d check durations" message
actually provides a worst case estimate of the time skew. If all CPUs have
been checked, the cs_nsec_max value multiplied by 2 is the maximum
possible time skew between the TSCs of any two CPUs on the system. The
worst case estimate is derived from two boundary cases:
1. No time is consumed to execute instructions between csnow_begin and
csnow_mid while all the cs_nsec_max time is consumed by the code between
csnow_mid and csnow_end. In this case, the maximum undetectable time skew
of a CPU being ahead would be cs_nsec_max.
2. All the cs_nsec_max time is consumed to execute instructions between
csnow_begin and csnow_mid while no time is consumed by the code between
csnow_mid and csnow_end. In this case, the maximum undetectable time skew
of a CPU being behind would be cs_nsec_max.
The worst case estimate assumes a system experiencing a corner case
consisting of the two boundary cases.
Always print the "CPU %d check durations" message so that the maximum
possible time skew measured by the TSC sync check can be compared to the
time skew measured by the clocksource watchdog.

When testing softirq based hrtimers on an ARM32 board, with high resolution
mode and NOHZ inactive, softirq based hrtimers fail to expire after being
moved away from an offline CPU:
CPU0 CPU1
hrtimer_start(..., HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT);
cpu_down(CPU1) ...
hrtimers_cpu_dying()
// Migrate timers to CPU0
smp_call_function_single(CPU0, returgger_next_event);
retrigger_next_event()
if (!highres && !nohz)
return;
As retrigger_next_event() is a NOOP when both high resolution timers and
NOHZ are inactive CPU0's hrtimer_cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is not
updated and the migrated softirq timers never expire unless there is a
softirq based hrtimer queued on CPU0 later.
Fix this by removing the hrtimer_hres_active() and tick_nohz_active() check
in retrigger_next_event(), which enforces a full update of the CPU base.
As this is not a fast path the extra cost does not matter.

tick_shutdown() sets the state of the clockevent device to detached
first and the invokes clockevents_exchange_device(), which in turn
invokes clockevents_switch_state().
But clockevents_switch_state() returns without invoking the device shutdown
callback as the device is already in detached state. As a consequence the
timer device is not shutdown when a CPU goes offline.
tick_shutdown() does this because it was originally invoked on a online CPU
and not on the outgoing CPU. It therefore could not access the clockevent
device of the already offlined CPU and just set the state.
Since commit 3b1596a21f tick_shutdown() is called on the outgoing CPU, so
the hardware device can be accessed.
Remove the state set before calling clockevents_exchange_device(), so that
the subsequent clockevents_switch_state() handles the state transition and
invokes the shutdown callback of the clockevent device.

We can reproduce the warning by following the steps below:
1. echo 8 >> set_event_notrace_pid. Let tr->filtered_pids owns one pid
and register sched_switch tracepoint.
2. echo ' ' >> set_event_pid, and perform fault injection during chunk
allocation of trace_pid_list_alloc. Let pid_list with no pid and
assign to tr->filtered_pids.
3. echo ' ' >> set_event_pid. Let pid_list is NULL and assign to
tr->filtered_pids.
4. echo 9 >> set_event_pid, will trigger the double register
sched_switch tracepoint warning.
The reason is that syzkaller injects a fault into the chunk allocation
in trace_pid_list_alloc, causing a failure in trace_pid_list_set, which
may trigger double register of the same tracepoint. This only occurs
when the system is about to crash, but to suppress this warning, let's
add failure handling logic to trace_pid_list_set.

alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and

This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,

This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
system_wq is a per-CPU worqueue, yet nothing in its name tells about that
CPU affinity constraint, which is very often not required by users. Make
it clear by adding a system_percpu_wq.
queue_work() / queue_delayed_work() mod_delayed_work() will now use the
new per-cpu wq: whether the user still stick on the old name a warn will

the PM notifier is only registered with the first call to

Fix the problem by only unregistering the PM notifier during error handling

This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

Move pm_wakeup_clear() to the same location as other functions that do
bookkeeping prior to suspend_prepare().
Since calling pm_wakeup_clear() is a prerequisite to setting up for
suspend and enabling functionalities of suspend (like aborting during
suspend), moving pm_wakeup_clear() higher up the call stack makes its
intent more clear and obvious that it is called prior to
suspend_prepare().
After this change, there is a slightly larger window when abort events
can be registered, but otherwise suspend functionality is the same.

While a BH work item is canceled, the core code spins until it
determines that the item completed. On PREEMPT_RT the spinning relies on
a lock in local_bh_disable() to avoid a live lock if the canceling
thread has higher priority than the BH-worker and preempts it. This lock
ensures that the BH-worker makes progress by PI-boosting it.
This lock in local_bh_disable() is a central per-CPU BKL and about to be
removed.
To provide the required synchronisation add a per pool lock. The lock is
acquired by the bh_worker at the begin while the individual callbacks
are invoked. To enforce progress in case of interruption, __flush_work()
needs to acquire the lock.
This will flush all BH-work items assigned to that pool.

Now in cpuset_attach(), we need to synchronously wait for
flush_workqueue to complete. The execution time of flushing
cpuset_migrate_mm_wq depends on the amount of mm migration initiated by
cpusets at that time. When the cpuset.mems of a cgroup occupying a large
amount of memory is modified, it may trigger extensive mm migration,
causing cpuset_attach() to block on flush_workqueue for an extended period.
This could be dangerous because cpuset_attach() is within the critical
section of cgroup_mutex, which may ultimately cause all cgroup-related
operations in the system to be blocked.
This patch attempts to defer the flush_workqueue() operation until
returning to userspace using the task_work which is originally proposed by
tejun[1], so that flush happens after cgroup_mutex is dropped. That way we
maintain the operation synchronicity while avoiding bothering anyone else.

SCX hooks into CPU cgroup controller operations and read-locks
scx_cgroup_rwsem to exclude them while enabling and disable schedulers.
While this works, it's unnecessarily complicated given that
cgroup_[un]lock() are available and thus the cgroup operations can be locked
out that way.
Drop scx_cgroup_rwsem locking from the tg on/offline and cgroup [can_]attach
operations. Instead, grab cgroup_lock() from scx_cgroup_lock(). Drop
scx_cgroup_finish_attach() which is no longer necessary. Drop the now
unnecessary rcu locking and css ref bumping in scx_cgroup_init() and
scx_cgroup_exit().
As scx_cgroup_set_weight/bandwidth() paths aren't protected by
cgroup_lock(), rename scx_cgroup_rwsem to scx_cgroup_ops_rwsem and retain
the locking there.
This is overall simpler and will also allow enable/disable paths to
synchronize against cgroup changes independent of the CPU controller.

scx_enable() turns on the bypass mode while enable is in progress. If
enabling fails, it turns off the bypass mode and then triggers scx_error().
scx_error() will trigger scx_disable_workfn() which will turn on the bypass
mode again and unload the failed scheduler.
This moves the system out of bypass mode between the enable error path and
the disable path, which is unnecessary and can be brittle - e.g. the thread
running scx_enable() may already be on the failed scheduler and can be
switched out before it triggers scx_error() leading to a stall. The watchdog
would eventually kick in, so the situation isn't critical but is still
suboptimal.
There is nothing to be gained by turning off the bypass mode between
scx_enable() failure and scx_disable_workfn(). Keep bypass on.

During tasks iteration, the locks can be dropped using
scx_task_iter_unlock() to perform e.g. sleepable allocations. Afterwards,
scx_task_iter_relock() has to be called prior to other iteration operations,
which is error-prone. This can be easily automated by tracking whether
scx_tasks_lock is held in scx_task_iter and re-acquiring when necessary. It
already tracks whether the task's rq is locked after all.
- Add scx_task_iter->list_locked which remembers whether scx_tasks_lock is
held.
- Rename scx_task_iter->locked to scx_task_iter->locked_task to better
distinguish it from ->list_locked.
- Replace scx_task_iter_relock() with __scx_task_iter_maybe_relock() which
is automatically called by scx_task_iter_next() and scx_task_iter_stop().
- Drop explicit scx_task_iter_relock() calls.
The resulting behavior should be equivalent.

When a watch on dir=/ is combined with an fsnotify event for a
single-character name directly under / (e.g., creating /a), an
out-of-bounds read can occur in audit_compare_dname_path().
The helper parent_len() returns 1 for "/". In audit_compare_dname_path(),
when parentlen equals the full path length (1), the code sets p = path + 1
and pathlen = 1 - 1 = 0. The subsequent loop then dereferences
p[pathlen - 1] (i.e., p[-1]), causing an out-of-bounds read.
Fix this by adding a pathlen > 0 check to the while loop condition
to prevent the out-of-bounds access.

Commit 5806b3d051 ("cpuset: decouple tmpmasks and cpumasks freeing in

NULL pointer can be passed to free_tmpmasks() in cpuset_handle_hotplug()
if cpuset v1 is active. This can cause segmentation fault and crash

Fix that by adding the NULL pointer check to free_tmpmasks().

Some architectures have a static interrupt layout, with a limited number of
interrupts. Without SPARSE_IRQ, the test may not be able to allocate any
fake interrupts, and the test will fail. (This occurs on ARCH=m68k, for
example.)
Additionally, managed-affinity is only supported with CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y,
so irq_shutdown_depth_test() and irq_cpuhotplug_test() would fail without
it.
Add a 'SPARSE_IRQ' dependency to avoid these problems.
Many architectures 'select SPARSE_IRQ', so this is easy to miss.
Notably, this also excludes ARCH=um from running any of these tests, even
though some of them might work.

around subtraction. It cannot be used to divide large numbers, as that
introduces long, computationally expensive delays. A regular u64 division
is also not possible in the timekeeper update path as it can be too slow.
Instead of splitting the ktime_t offset into into second and subsecond
components during the timekeeper update fast-path, do it together with the
adjustment of tk->offs_aux in the slow-path. Equivalent to the handling of
offs_boot and monotonic_to_boot.

With task based throttle model, the previous way to check cfs_rq's
nr_queued to decide if throttled time should be accounted doesn't work
as expected, e.g. when a cfs_rq which has a single task is throttled,
that task could later block in kernel mode instead of being dequeued on
limbo list and accounting this as throttled time is not accurate.
Rework throttle time accounting for a cfs_rq as follows:
- start accounting when the first task gets throttled in its hierarchy;
- stop accounting on unthrottle.
Note that there will be a time gap between when a cfs_rq is throttled
and when a task in its hierarchy is actually throttled. This accounting
mechanism only starts accounting in the latter case.

In current throttle model, when a cfs_rq is throttled, its entity will
be dequeued from cpu's rq, making tasks attached to it not able to run,
thus achiveing the throttle target.
This has a drawback though: assume a task is a reader of percpu_rwsem
and is waiting. When it gets woken, it can not run till its task group's
next period comes, which can be a relatively long time. Waiting writer
will have to wait longer due to this and it also makes further reader
build up and eventually trigger task hung.
To improve this situation, change the throttle model to task based, i.e.
when a cfs_rq is throttled, record its throttled status but do not remove
it from cpu's rq. Instead, for tasks that belong to this cfs_rq, when
they get picked, add a task work to them so that when they return
to user, they can be dequeued there. In this way, tasks throttled will
not hold any kernel resources. And on unthrottle, enqueue back those
tasks so they can continue to run.
Throttled cfs_rq's PELT clock is handled differently now: previously the
cfs_rq's PELT clock is stopped once it entered throttled state but since
now tasks(in kernel mode) can continue to run, change the behaviour to
stop PELT clock when the throttled cfs_rq has no tasks left.

Leon [1] and Vinicius [2] noted a topology_span_sane() warning during
their testing starting from v6.16-rc1. Debug that followed pointed to
the tl->mask() for the NODE domain being incorrectly resolved to that of
the highest NUMA domain.
tl->mask() for NODE is set to the sd_numa_mask() which depends on the
global "sched_domains_curr_level" hack. "sched_domains_curr_level" is
set to the "tl->numa_level" during tl traversal in build_sched_domains()
calling sd_init() but was not reset before topology_span_sane().
Since "tl->numa_level" still reflected the old value from
build_sched_domains(), topology_span_sane() for the NODE domain trips
when the span of the last NUMA domain overlaps.
Instead of replicating the "sched_domains_curr_level" hack, get rid of
it entirely and instead, pass the entire "sched_domain_topology_level"
object to tl->cpumask() function to prevent such mishap in the future.
sd_numa_mask() now directly references "tl->numa_level" instead of
relying on the global "sched_domains_curr_level" hack to index into
sched_domains_numa_masks[].
The original warning was reproducible on the following NUMA topology
reported by Leon:

When a CPU chooses to call push_dl_task and picks a task to push to
another CPU's runqueue then it will call find_lock_later_rq method
which would take a double lock on both CPUs' runqueues. If one of the
locks aren't readily available, it may lead to dropping the current
runqueue lock and reacquiring both the locks at once. During this window
it is possible that the task is already migrated and is running on some
other CPU. These cases are already handled. However, if the task is
migrated and has already been executed and another CPU is now trying to
wake it up (ttwu) such that it is queued again on the runqeue
(on_rq is 1) and also if the task was run by the same CPU, then the
current checks will pass even though the task was migrated out and is no
longer in the pushable tasks list.
Please go through the original rt change for more details on the issue.
To fix this, after the lock is obtained inside the find_lock_later_rq,
it ensures that the task is still at the head of pushable tasks list.
Also removed some checks that are no longer needed with the addition of
this new check.
However, the new check of pushable tasks list only applies when
find_lock_later_rq is called by push_dl_task. For the other caller i.e.
dl_task_offline_migration, existing checks are used.

Both tracing_mark_write and tracing_mark_raw_write call
__copy_from_user_inatomic during preempt_disable. But in some case,
__copy_from_user_inatomic may trigger page fault, and will call schedule()
subtly. And if a task is migrated to other cpu, the following warning will
be trigger:
if (RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer,
!local_read(&cpu_buffer->committing)))
An example can illustrate this issue:
process flow CPU
---------------------------------------------------------------------
tracing_mark_raw_write(): cpu:0
...
ring_buffer_lock_reserve(): cpu:0
...
cpu = raw_smp_processor_id() cpu:0
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] cpu:0
...
...
__copy_from_user_inatomic(): cpu:0
...
# page fault
do_mem_abort(): cpu:0
...
# Call schedule
schedule() cpu:0
...
# the task schedule to cpu1
__buffer_unlock_commit(): cpu:1
...
ring_buffer_unlock_commit(): cpu:1
...
cpu = raw_smp_processor_id() cpu:1
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] cpu:1
As shown above, the process will acquire cpuid twice and the return values
are not the same.
To fix this problem using copy_from_user_nofault instead of
__copy_from_user_inatomic, as the former performs 'access_ok' before
copying.

Commit 16f5dfbc85 ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT")
made GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN.
Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT
(e.g., `GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean
up these redundant flags across subsystems.

With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd3 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags.
However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not
changed from the previous type of unsigned long.
While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits
(CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still
undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise.
Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of callees to
sys_clone3/copy_process (excluding the architecture-specific
copy_thread) to consistently pass clone_flags as u64, so that
no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on 32-bit architectures.

With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd3 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit. However, the signature of the copy_*
helper functions (e.g., copy_sighand) used by copy_process was not
adapted.
As such, they truncate the flags on any 32-bit architectures that
supports clone3 (arc, arm, csky, m68k, microblaze, mips32, openrisc,
parisc32, powerpc32, riscv32, x86-32 and xtensa).
For copy_sighand with CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND being an actual u64
constant, this triggers an observable bug in kernel selftest
clone3_clear_sighand:
if (clone_flags & CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND)
in function copy_sighand within fork.c will always fail given:
unsigned long /* == uint32_t */ clone_flags
#define CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND 0x100000000ULL
This commit fixes the bug by always passing clone_flags to copy_sighand
via their declared u64 type, invariant of architecture-dependent integer
sizes.

sched/deadline: Don't count nr_running for dl_server proxy tasks
sched/deadline: Fix RT task potential starvation when expiry time passed
sched/deadline: Always stop dl-server before changing parameters
sched/deadline: Fix dl_server_stopped()
To avoid a memory leak via mm_alloc() + mmdrop() the futex cleanup code
has been moved to __mmdrop(). This resulted in a warnings if the futex
hash table has been allocated via vmalloc() the mmdrop() was invoked
from atomic context.
The free path must stay in __mmput() to ensure it is invoked from
preemptible context.
In order to avoid the memory leak, delay the allocation of
mm_struct::mm->futex_ref to futex_hash_allocate(). This works because
neither the per-CPU counter nor the private hash has been allocated and
therefore
- futex_private_hash() callers (such as exit_pi_state_list()) don't
acquire reference if there is no private hash yet. There is also no
reference put.
- Regular callers (futex_hash()) fallback to global hash. No reference
counting here.
The futex_ref member can be allocated in futex_hash_allocate() before
the private hash itself is allocated. This happens either while the
first thread is created or on request. In both cases the process has
just a single thread so there can be either futex operation in progress
or the request to create a private hash.
Move futex_hash_free() back to __mmput();
Move the allocation of mm_struct::futex_ref to futex_hash_allocate().

To enable more complex parameterized testing scenarios, the
generate_params() function needs additional context beyond just
the previously generated parameter. This patch modifies the
generate_params() function signature to include an extra
`struct kunit *test` argument, giving test users access to the
parameterized test context when generating parameters.
The `struct kunit *test` argument was added as the first parameter
to the function signature as it aligns with the convention of other
KUnit functions that accept `struct kunit *test` first. This also
mirrors the "this" or "self" reference found in object-oriented
programming languages.
This patch also modifies xe_pci_live_device_gen_param() in xe_pci.c
and nthreads_gen_params() in kcsan_test.c to reflect this signature
change.

[Symptom]
The fair server mechanism, which is intended to prevent fair starvation
when higher-priority tasks monopolize the CPU.
Specifically, RT tasks on the runqueue may not be scheduled as expected.
[Analysis]

By memory dump of dl_server:
curr = 0xFFFFFF80D6A0AC00 (
dl_server = 0xFFFFFF83CD5B1470(

base = 0xFFFFFF83CD5A12C0,
state = 0x0,
is_rel = 0x0,
is_soft = 0x0,
clock_update_flags = 0x4,
clock = 0x000008204A496900,
- The timer expiration time (rq->curr->dl_server->dl_timer->expires)
is already in the past, indicating the timer has expired.
- The timer state (rq->curr->dl_server->dl_timer->state) is 0.
[Suspected Root Cause]
The relevant code flow in the throttle path of
update_curr_dl_se() as follows:
dequeue_dl_entity(dl_se, 0); // the DL entity is dequeued
if (unlikely(is_dl_boosted(dl_se) || !start_dl_timer(dl_se))) {
if (dl_server(dl_se)) // timer registration fails
enqueue_dl_entity(dl_se, ENQUEUE_REPLENISH);//enqueue immediately
...
}
The failure of `start_dl_timer` is caused by attempting to register a
timer with an expiration time that is already in the past. When this
situation persists, the code repeatedly re-enqueues the DL entity
without properly replenishing or restarting the timer, resulting in RT
task may not be scheduled as expected.
[Proposed Solution]:
Instead of immediately re-enqueuing the DL entity on timer registration
failure, this change ensures the DL entity is properly replenished and
the timer is restarted, preventing RT potential starvation.

Commit cccb45d7c4 ("sched/deadline: Less agressive dl_server
handling") reduced dl-server overhead by delaying disabling servers only
after there are no fair task around for a whole period, which means that
deadline entities are not dequeued right away on a server stop event.
However, the delay opens up a window in which a request for changing
server parameters can break per-runqueue running_bw tracking, as
reported by Yuri.
Close the problematic window by unconditionally calling dl_server_stop()
before applying the new parameters (ensuring deadline entities go
through an actual dequeue).

number of contexts and the number of stack entries. That's confusing
and the callers always pass zero anyway. Hard code the zero.

As the MSI controller on SG2044 uses PLIC as the underlying interrupt
controller, it needs to call irq_enable() and irq_disable() to
startup/shutdown interrupts. Otherwise, the MSI interrupt can not be
startup correctly and will not respond any incoming interrupt.
Introduce irq_chip_startup_parent() and irq_chip_shutdown_parent() to allow
the interrupt controller to call the irq_startup()/irq_shutdown() callbacks
of the parent interrupt chip.
In case the irq_startup()/irq_shutdown() callbacks are not implemented for
the parent interrupt chip, this will fallback to irq_chip_enable_parent()
or irq_chip_disable_parent().

- Fix rtla and latency tooling pkg-config errors
If libtraceevent and libtracefs is installed, but their corresponding '.pc'
files are not installed, it reports that the libraries are missing and
confuses the developer. Instead, report that the pkg-config files are
missing and should be installed.
- Fix overflow bug of the parser in trace_get_user()
trace_get_user() uses the parsing functions to parse the user space strings.
If the parser fails due to incorrect processing, it doesn't terminate the
buffer with a nul byte. Add a "failed" flag to the parser that gets set when
parsing fails and is used to know if the buffer is fine to use or not.
- Remove a semicolon that was at an end of a comment line
- Fix register_ftrace_graph() to unregister the pm notifier on error
The register_ftrace_graph() registers a pm notifier but there's an error
path that can exit the function without unregistering it. Since the function
returns an error, it will never be unregistered.
- Allocate and copy ftrace hash for reader of ftrace filter files
When the set_ftrace_filter or set_ftrace_notrace files are open for read,
an iterator is created and sets its hash pointer to the associated hash that
represents filtering or notrace filtering to it. The issue is that the hash
it points to can change while the iteration is happening. All the locking
used to access the tracer's hashes are released which means those hashes can
change or even be freed. Using the hash pointed to by the iterator can cause
UAF bugs or similar.
Have the read of these files allocate and copy the corresponding hashes and
use that as that will keep them the same while the iterator is open. This
also simplifies the code as opening it for write already does an allocate
and copy, and now that the read is doing the same, there's no need to check
which way it was opened on the release of the file, and the iterator hash
can always be freed.
- Fix function graph to copy args into temp storage
The output of the function graph tracer shows both the entry and the exit of
a function. When the exit is right after the entry, it combines the two
events into one with the output of "function();", instead of showing:
function() {
}
In order to do this, the iterator descriptor that reads the events includes
storage that saves the entry event while it peaks at the next event in
the ring buffer. The peek can free the entry event so the iterator must
store the information to use it after the peek.
With the addition of function graph tracer recording the args, where the
args are a dynamic array in the entry event, the temp storage does not save
them. This causes the args to be corrupted or even cause a read of unsafe
memory.
Add space to save the args in the temp storage of the iterator.
- Fix race between ftrace_dump and reading trace_pipe
ftrace_dump() is used when a crash occurs where the ftrace buffer will be
printed to the console. But it can also be triggered by sysrq-z. If a
sysrq-z is triggered while a task is reading trace_pipe it can cause a race
in the ftrace_dump() where it checks if the buffer has content, then it
checks if the next event is available, and then prints the output
(regardless if the next event was available or not). Reading trace_pipe
at the same time can cause it to not be available, and this triggers a
WARN_ON in the print. Move the printing into the check if the next event
exists or not.

Currently the reader of set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace just adds
the pointer to the global tracer hash to its iterator. Unlike the writer
that allocates a copy of the hash, the reader keeps the pointer to the
filter hashes. This is problematic because this pointer is static across
function calls that release the locks that can update the global tracer
hashes. This can cause UAF and similar bugs.
Allocate and copy the hash for reading the filter files like it is done
for the writers. This not only fixes UAF bugs, but also makes the code a
bit simpler as it doesn't have to differentiate when to free the
iterator's hash between writers and readers.

When calling ftrace_dump_one() concurrently with reading trace_pipe,
a WARN_ON_ONCE() in trace_printk_seq() can be triggered due to a race
condition.
The issue occurs because:
CPU0 (ftrace_dump) CPU1 (reader)
echo z > /proc/sysrq-trigger
!trace_empty(&iter)
trace_iterator_reset(&iter) <- len = size = 0
cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe
trace_find_next_entry_inc(&iter)
__find_next_entry
ring_buffer_empty_cpu <- all empty
return NULL
trace_printk_seq(&iter.seq)
WARN_ON_ONCE(s->seq.len >= s->seq.size)
In the context between trace_empty() and trace_find_next_entry_inc()
during ftrace_dump, the ring buffer data was consumed by other readers.
This caused trace_find_next_entry_inc to return NULL, failing to populate
`iter.seq`. At this point, due to the prior trace_iterator_reset, both
`iter.seq.len` and `iter.seq.size` were set to 0. Since they are equal,
the WARN_ON_ONCE condition is triggered.
Move the trace_printk_seq() into the if block that checks to make sure the
return value of trace_find_next_entry_inc() is non-NULL in
ftrace_dump_one(), ensuring the 'iter.seq' is properly populated before
subsequent operations.

The output of the function graph tracer has two ways to display its
entries. One way for leaf functions with no events recorded within them,
and the other is for functions with events recorded inside it. As function
graph has an entry and exit event, to simplify the output of leaf
functions it combines the two, where as non leaf functions are separate:
2) | invoke_rcu_core() {
2) | raise_softirq() {
2) 0.391 us | __raise_softirq_irqoff();
2) 1.191 us | }
2) 2.086 us | }
The __raise_softirq_irqoff() function above is really two events that were
merged into one. Otherwise it would have looked like:
2) | invoke_rcu_core() {
2) | raise_softirq() {
2) | __raise_softirq_irqoff() {
2) 0.391 us | }
2) 1.191 us | }
2) 2.086 us | }
In order to do this merge, the reading of the trace output file needs to
look at the next event before printing. But since the pointer to the event
is on the ring buffer, it needs to save the entry event before it looks at
the next event as the next event goes out of focus as soon as a new event
is read from the ring buffer. After it reads the next event, it will print
the entry event with either the '{' (non leaf) or ';' and timestamps (leaf).
The iterator used to read the trace file has storage for this event. The
problem happens when the function graph tracer has arguments attached to
the entry event as the entry now has a variable length "args" field. This
field only gets set when funcargs option is used. But the args are not
recorded in this temp data and garbage could be printed. The entry field
is copied via:
data->ent = *curr;
Where "curr" is the entry field. But this method only saves the non
variable length fields from the structure.
Add a helper structure to the iterator data that adds the max args size to
the data storage in the iterator. Then simply copy the entire entry into
this storage (with size protection).

There isn't yet a clear way to identify a set of "lost" time that
everyone (or at least a wider group of users) cares about. However,
users can perform some delay accounting by iterating over components of
interest. This patch allows cgroup v2 freezing time to be one of those
components.
Track the cumulative time that each v2 cgroup spends freezing and expose
it to userland via a new local stat file in cgroupfs. Thank you to
Michal, who provided the ASCII art in the updated documentation.
To access this value:
$ mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
$ cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.stat.local
freeze_time_total 0
Ensure consistent freeze time reads with freeze_seq, a per-cgroup
sequence counter. Writes are serialized using the css_set_lock.

cgroup_lock_and_drain_offline() during root destruction.
Related case:

// cgroup_destroy_wq
// kill all perf_event css

css_free_rwork_fn
cgroup_destroy_root
cgroup_lock_and_drain_offline
// some perf descendants are dying
// cgroup_destroy_wq max_active = 1
// waiting for css A to die
Problem scenario:
1. CPU0 mounts perf_event (rebind_subsystems)
2. CPU1 unmounts net_prio (cgroup_kill_sb), queuing root destruction work
3. A dying perf_event CSS gets queued for offline after root destruction
4. Root destruction waits for offline completion, but offline work is
blocked behind root destruction in cgroup_destroy_wq (max_active=1)
Solution:
Split cgroup_destroy_wq into three dedicated workqueues:
cgroup_offline_wq – Handles CSS offline operations
cgroup_release_wq – Manages resource release
cgroup_free_wq – Performs final memory deallocation

In the following toy program (reg states minimized for readability), R0
and R1 always have different values at instruction 6. This is obvious
when reading the program but cannot be guessed from ranges alone as
they overlap (R0 in [0; 0xc0000000], R1 in [1024; 0xc0000400]).
0: call bpf_get_prandom_u32#7 ; R0_w=scalar()
1: w0 = w0 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xffffffff))
2: r0 >>= 30 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0x3))
3: r0 <<= 30 ; R0_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xc0000000))
4: r1 = r0 ; R1_w=scalar(var_off=(0x0; 0xc0000000))
5: r1 += 1024 ; R1_w=scalar(var_off=(0x400; 0xc0000000))
6: if r1 != r0 goto pc+1
Looking at tnums however, we can deduce that R1 is always different from
R0 because their tnums don't agree on known bits. This patch uses this
logic to improve is_scalar_branch_taken in case of BPF_JEQ and BPF_JNE.
This change has a tiny impact on complexity, which was measured with
the Cilium complexity CI test. That test covers 72 programs with
various build and load time configurations for a total of 970 test
cases. For 80% of test cases, the patch has no impact. On the other
test cases, the patch decreases complexity by only 0.08% on average. In
the best case, the verifier needs to walk 3% less instructions and, in
the worst case, 1.5% more. Overall, the patch has a small positive
impact, especially for our largest programs.

Commit 16f5dfbc85 ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT")
made GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN.
Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT
(e.g., `GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean
up these redundant flags across subsystems.

Adding uprobe as another exception to the seccomp filter alongside
with the uretprobe syscall.
Same as the uretprobe the uprobe syscall is installed by kernel as

Putting together all the previously added pieces to support optimized
uprobes on top of 5-byte nop instruction.
The current uprobe execution goes through following:
- installs breakpoint instruction over original instruction
- exception handler hit and calls related uprobe consumers
- and either simulates original instruction or does out of line single step
execution of it
- returns to user space
The optimized uprobe path does following:
- checks the original instruction is 5-byte nop (plus other checks)
- adds (or uses existing) user space trampoline with uprobe syscall
- overwrites original instruction (5-byte nop) with call to user space
trampoline
- the user space trampoline executes uprobe syscall that calls related uprobe
consumers
- trampoline returns back to next instruction
This approach won't speed up all uprobes as it's limited to using nop5 as
original instruction, but we plan to use nop5 as USDT probe instruction
(which currently uses single byte nop) and speed up the USDT probes.
The arch_uprobe_optimize triggers the uprobe optimization and is called after
first uprobe hit. I originally had it called on uprobe installation but then
it clashed with elf loader, because the user space trampoline was added in a
place where loader might need to put elf segments, so I decided to do it after
first uprobe hit when loading is done.
The uprobe is un-optimized in arch specific set_orig_insn call.
The instruction overwrite is x86 arch specific and needs to go through 3 updates:
(on top of nop5 instruction)
- write int3 into 1st byte
- write last 4 bytes of the call instruction
- update the call instruction opcode
And cleanup goes though similar reverse stages:
- overwrite call opcode with breakpoint (int3)
- write last 4 bytes of the nop5 instruction
- write the nop5 first instruction byte
We do not unmap and release uprobe trampoline when it's no longer needed,
because there's no easy way to make sure none of the threads is still
inside the trampoline. But we do not waste memory, because there's just
single page for all the uprobe trampoline mappings.
We do waste frame on page mapping for every 4GB by keeping the uprobe
trampoline page mapped, but that seems ok.
We take the benefit from the fact that set_swbp and set_orig_insn are
called under mmap_write_lock(mm), so we can use the current instruction
as the state the uprobe is in - nop5/breakpoint/call trampoline -
and decide the needed action (optimize/un-optimize) based on that.
Attaching the speed up from benchs/run_bench_uprobes.sh script:
current:
usermode-count : 152.604 ± 0.044M/s
syscall-count : 13.359 ± 0.042M/s
--> uprobe-nop : 3.229 ± 0.002M/s
uprobe-push : 3.086 ± 0.004M/s
uprobe-ret : 1.114 ± 0.004M/s
uprobe-nop5 : 1.121 ± 0.005M/s
uretprobe-nop : 2.145 ± 0.002M/s
uretprobe-push : 2.070 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-ret : 0.931 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-nop5 : 0.957 ± 0.001M/s
after the change:
usermode-count : 152.448 ± 0.244M/s
syscall-count : 14.321 ± 0.059M/s
uprobe-nop : 3.148 ± 0.007M/s
uprobe-push : 2.976 ± 0.004M/s
uprobe-ret : 1.068 ± 0.003M/s
--> uprobe-nop5 : 7.038 ± 0.007M/s
uretprobe-nop : 2.109 ± 0.004M/s
uretprobe-push : 2.035 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-ret : 0.908 ± 0.001M/s
uretprobe-nop5 : 3.377 ± 0.009M/s
I see bit more speed up on Intel (above) compared to AMD. The big nop5
speed up is partly due to emulating nop5 and partly due to optimization.
The key speed up we do this for is the USDT switch from nop to nop5:
uprobe-nop : 3.148 ± 0.007M/s
uprobe-nop5 : 7.038 ± 0.007M/s

Adding new uprobe syscall that calls uprobe handlers for given
'breakpoint' address.
The idea is that the 'breakpoint' address calls the user space
trampoline which executes the uprobe syscall.
The syscall handler reads the return address of the initial call
to retrieve the original 'breakpoint' address. With this address
we find the related uprobe object and call its consumers.
Adding the arch_uprobe_trampoline_mapping function that provides
uprobe trampoline mapping. This mapping is backed with one global
page initialized at __init time and shared by the all the mapping
instances.
We do not allow to execute uprobe syscall if the caller is not
from uprobe trampoline mapping.
The uprobe syscall ensures the consumer (bpf program) sees registers
values in the state before the trampoline was called.

Adding support to add special mapping for user space trampoline with
following functions:
uprobe_trampoline_get - find or add uprobe_trampoline
uprobe_trampoline_put - remove or destroy uprobe_trampoline
The user space trampoline is exported as arch specific user space special
mapping through tramp_mapping, which is initialized in following changes
with new uprobe syscall.
The uprobe trampoline needs to be callable/reachable from the probed address,
so while searching for available address we use is_reachable_by_call function
to decide if the uprobe trampoline is callable from the probe address.
All uprobe_trampoline objects are stored in uprobes_state object and are
cleaned up when the process mm_struct goes down. Adding new arch hooks
for that, because this change is x86_64 specific.

Currently unapply_uprobe takes mmap_read_lock, but it might call
remove_breakpoint which eventually changes user pages.
Current code writes either breakpoint or original instruction, so it can
go away with read lock as explained in here [1]. But with the upcoming
change that writes multiple instructions on the probed address we need
to ensure that any update to mm's pages is exclusive.

During boot scratch area is allocated based on command line parameters or

case KHO is disabled. Currently, no warning is printed that KHO is
disabled, which makes it confusing for the end user to figure out why KHO
is not available. Add the missing warning message.

KHO uses struct pages for the preserved memory early in boot, however,
with deferred struct page initialization, only a small portion of memory
has properly initialized struct pages.
This problem was detected where vmemmap is poisoned, and illegal flag
combinations are detected.
Don't allow them to be enabled together, and later we will have to teach
KHO to work properly with deferred struct page init kernel feature.

Commit f08d0c3a71 ("pidfd: add PIDFD_SELF* sentinels to refer to own

get_task_pid(), which increments pid->count but never drops it with
put_pid().
As a result, kmemleak reports unreferenced pid objects after running
tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/pidfd_test, for example:

task_pid_vnr(another_task) will crash if the caller was already reaped.
The pid_alive(current) check can't really help, the parent/debugger can
call release_task() right after this check.
This also means that even task_ppid_nr_ns(current, NULL) is not safe,
pid_alive() only ensures that it is safe to dereference ->real_parent.
Change __task_pid_nr_ns() to ensure ns != NULL.

area possible with bpf_dynptr_read() or through a bpf_dynptr_slice(), and
make writes to the metadata area possible with bpf_dynptr_write() or
through a bpf_dynptr_slice_rdwr().
Note that for cloned skbs which share data with the original, we limit the
skb metadata dynptr to be read-only since we don't unclone on a
bpf_dynptr_write to metadata.

Add a dynptr type, similar to skb dynptr, but for the skb metadata access.
The dynptr provides an alternative to __sk_buff->data_meta for accessing
the custom metadata area allocated using the bpf_xdp_adjust_meta() helper.
More importantly, it abstracts away the fact where the storage for the
custom metadata lives, which opens up the way to persist the metadata by
relocating it as the skb travels through the network stack layers.
Writes to skb metadata invalidate any existing skb payload and metadata
slices. While this is more restrictive that needed at the moment, it leaves
the door open to reallocating the metadata on writes, and should be only a
minor inconvenience to the users.
Only the program types which can access __sk_buff->data_meta today are
allowed to create a dynptr for skb metadata at the moment. We need to
modify the network stack to persist the metadata across layers before
opening up access to other BPF hooks.
Once more BPF hooks gain access to skb_meta dynptr, we will also need to
add a read-only variant of the helper similar to
bpf_dynptr_from_skb_rdonly.
skb_meta dynptr ops are stubbed out and implemented by subsequent changes.

It is already checked whether the VMA size is the same as
nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE, so later checking both:
aux_size == vma_size && aux_size == nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE
is redundant. Remove the vma_size check as nr_pages is what is actually
used in the allocation function. That prepares for splitting out the buffer
allocation into separate functions, so that only nr_pages needs to be
handed in.

Calling pmu->start()/stop() on perf events in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF can
leave event->hw.idx at -1. When PMU drivers later attempt to use this
negative index as a shift exponent in bitwise operations, it leads to UBSAN
shift-out-of-bounds reports.
The issue is a logical flaw in how event groups handle throttling when some
members are intentionally disabled. Based on the analysis and the
reproducer provided by Mark Rutland (this issue on both arm64 and x86-64).
The scenario unfolds as follows:
1. A group leader event is configured with a very aggressive sampling
period (e.g., sample_period = 1). This causes frequent interrupts and
triggers the throttling mechanism.
2. A child event in the same group is created in a disabled state
(.disabled = 1). This event remains in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF.
Since it hasn't been scheduled onto the PMU, its event->hw.idx remains
initialized at -1.
3. When throttling occurs, perf_event_throttle_group() and later
perf_event_unthrottle_group() iterate through all siblings, including
the disabled child event.
4. perf_event_throttle()/unthrottle() are called on this inactive child
event, which then call event->pmu->start()/stop().
5. The PMU driver receives the event with hw.idx == -1 and attempts to
use it as a shift exponent. e.g., in macros like PMCNTENSET(idx),
leading to the UBSAN report.
The throttling mechanism attempts to start/stop events that are not
actively scheduled on the hardware.
Move the state check into perf_event_throttle()/perf_event_unthrottle() so
that inactive events are skipped entirely. This ensures only active events
with a valid hw.idx are processed, preventing undefined behavior and
silencing UBSAN warnings. The corrected check ensures true before
proceeding with PMU operations.
The problem can be reproduced with the syzkaller reproducer:

When running an XDP bpf_prog on the remote CPU in cpumap code
then we must disable the direct return optimization that
xdp_return can perform for mem_type page_pool. This optimization
assumes code is still executing under RX-NAPI of the original
receiving CPU, which isn't true on this remote CPU.
The cpumap code already disabled this via helpers
xdp_set_return_frame_no_direct() and xdp_clear_return_frame_no_direct(),
but the scope didn't include xdp_do_flush().
When doing XDP_REDIRECT towards e.g devmap this causes the
function bq_xmit_all() to run with direct return optimization
enabled. This can lead to hard to find bugs. The issue
only happens when bq_xmit_all() cannot ndo_xdp_xmit all
frames and them frees them via xdp_return_frame_rx_napi().
Fix by expanding scope to include xdp_do_flush(). This was found
by Dragos Tatulea.

When rcutorture is running on only the one boot-time CPU while that CPU
is busy invoking initcall() functions, the added load is quite likely to
unduly delay the RCU grace-period kthread, rcutorture readers, and much
else besides. This can result in rcu_torture_stats_print() reporting
rcutorture writer stalls, which are not really a bug in that environment.
After all, one CPU can only do so much.

kernel is booting, that is, while rcu_inkernel_boot_has_ended() continues

Sometimes a given system takes surprisingly long to boot, for example,
in one recent case, 70 seconds instead of three seconds. It would
be good to fix these slow-boot issues, but it would also be good for
the torture tests to announce that the system was still booting at the
start of the test. Especially for tests that have a greater probability
of false positives when run in the single-CPU boot-time environment.
Yes, those tests should defend themselves, but we should also make this
situation easier to diagnose.
This commit therefore causes torture_print_module_parms() to print
"still booting" at the end of its printk() that dumps out the values of

The CS_ONLINE flag was introduced prior to the CSS_ONLINE flag in the
cpuset subsystem. Currently, the flag setting sequence is as follows:
1. cpuset_css_online() sets CS_ONLINE
2. css->flags gets CSS_ONLINE set
...
3. cgroup->kill_css sets CSS_DYING
4. cpuset_css_offline() clears CS_ONLINE
5. css->flags clears CSS_ONLINE
The is_cpuset_online() check currently occurs between steps 1 and 3.
However, it would be equally safe to perform this check between steps 2
and 3, as CSS_ONLINE provides the same synchronization guarantee as
CS_ONLINE.
Since CS_ONLINE is redundant with CSS_ONLINE and provides no additional
synchronization benefits, we can safely remove it to simplify the code.

When CONFIG_DMA_DIRECT_REMAP is enabled, atomic pool pages are
remapped via dma_common_contiguous_remap() using the supplied
pgprot. Currently, the mapping uses
pgprot_dmacoherent(PAGE_KERNEL), which leaves the memory encrypted
on systems with memory encryption enabled (e.g., ARM CCA Realms).
This can cause the DMA layer to fail or crash when accessing the
memory, as the underlying physical pages are not configured as
expected.
Fix this by requesting a decrypted mapping in the vmap() call:
pgprot_decrypted(pgprot_dmacoherent(PAGE_KERNEL))
This ensures that atomic pool memory is consistently mapped
unencrypted.

The __clear_task_blocked_on() helper added a number of sanity
checks ensuring we hold the mutex wait lock and that the task
we are clearing blocked_on pointer (if set) matches the mutex.
However, there is an edge case in the _ww_mutex_wound() logic
where we need to clear the blocked_on pointer for the task that
owns the mutex, not the task that is waiting on the mutex.
For this case the sanity checks aren't valid, so handle this
by allowing a NULL lock to skip the additional checks.
K Prateek Nayak and Maarten Lankhorst also pointed out that in
this case where we don't hold the owner's mutex wait_lock, we
need to be a bit more careful using READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE in both
the __clear_task_blocked_on() and __set_task_blocked_on()
implementations to avoid accidentally tripping WARN_ONs if two
instances race. So do that here as well.
This issue was easier to miss, I realized, as the test-ww_mutex
driver only exercises the wait-die class of ww_mutexes. I've
sent a patch[1] to address this so the logic will be easier to
test.

RCU re-initializes the deferred QS irq work everytime before attempting
to queue it. However there are situations where the irq work is
attempted to be queued even though it is already queued. In that case
re-initializing messes-up with the irq work queue that is about to be
handled.
The chances for that to happen are higher when the architecture doesn't
support self-IPIs and irq work are then all lazy, such as with the
following sequence:
1) rcu_read_unlock() is called when IRQs are disabled and there is a
grace period involving blocked tasks on the node. The irq work
is then initialized and queued.
2) The related tasks are unblocked and the CPU quiescent state
is reported. rdp->defer_qs_iw_pending is reset to DEFER_QS_IDLE,
allowing the irq work to be requeued in the future (note the previous
one hasn't fired yet).
3) A new grace period starts and the node has blocked tasks.
4) rcu_read_unlock() is called when IRQs are disabled again. The irq work
is re-initialized (but it's queued! and its node is cleared) and
requeued. Which means it's requeued to itself.
5) The irq work finally fires with the tick. But since it was requeued
to itself, it loops and hangs.
Fix this with initializing the irq work only once before the CPU boots.

css_rstat_exit() may be called asynchronously in scenarios where preceding
calls to css_rstat_init() have not completed. One such example is this
sequence below:
css_create(...)
{
...
init_and_link_css(css, ...);
err = percpu_ref_init(...);
if (err)
goto err_free_css;
err = cgroup_idr_alloc(...);
if (err)
goto err_free_css;
err = css_rstat_init(css, ...);
if (err)
goto err_free_css;
...
err_free_css:
INIT_RCU_WORK(&css->destroy_rwork, css_free_rwork_fn);
queue_rcu_work(cgroup_destroy_wq, &css->destroy_rwork);
return ERR_PTR(err);
}
If any of the three goto jumps are taken, async cleanup will begin and
css_rstat_exit() will be invoked on an uninitialized css->rstat_cpu.
Avoid accessing the unitialized field by returning early in
css_rstat_exit() if this is the case.

It was found during testing that an invalid leaf partition with an
empty effective exclusive CPU list can become a valid empty partition
with no CPU afer an offline/online operation of an unrelated CPU. An
empty partition root is allowed in the special case that it has no
task in its cgroup and has distributed out all its CPUs to its child
partitions. That is certainly not the case here.
The problem is in the cpumask_subsets() test in the hotplug case
(update with no new mask) of update_parent_effective_cpumask() as it
also returns true if the effective exclusive CPU list is empty. Fix that
by addding the cpumask_empty() test to root out this exception case.
Also add the cpumask_empty() test in cpuset_hotplug_update_tasks()
to avoid calling update_parent_effective_cpumask() for this special case.

Since commit d74b27d63a ("cgroup/cpuset: Change cpuset_rwsem
and hotplug lock order"), the ordering of cpu hotplug lock
and cpuset_mutex had been reversed. That patch correctly
used the cpuslocked version of the static branch API to enable
cpusets_pre_enable_key and cpusets_enabled_key, but it didn't do the
same for cpusets_insane_config_key.
The cpusets_insane_config_key can be enabled in the
check_insane_mems_config() which is called from update_nodemask()
or cpuset_hotplug_update_tasks() with both cpu hotplug lock and
cpuset_mutex held. Deadlock can happen with a pending hotplug event that
tries to acquire the cpu hotplug write lock which will block further
cpus_read_lock() attempt from check_insane_mems_config(). Fix that by
switching to use static_branch_enable_cpuslocked().

Avoid excessive vzalloc/vfree calls when patching instructions in
do_misc_fixups(). bpf_patch_insn_data() uses vzalloc to allocate new

struct bpf_prog *bpf_patch_insn_data(env, ...)

}
The vzalloc/vfree pair is hot in perf report collected for e.g.
pyperf180 test case. It can be replaced with a call to vrealloc in
order to reduce the number of actual memory allocations.
This is a stop-gap solution, as bpf_patch_insn_data is still hot in
the profile. More comprehansive solutions had been discussed before
e.g. as in [1].

takedown_cpu() has a comment about "all preempt/rcu users must observe
!cpu_active()" which is kind of meaningless in this function. This
comment was originally introduced by commit 6acce3ef84 ("sched: Remove
get_online_cpus() usage") when _cpu_down() was setting cpu_active_mask
and synchronize_rcu()/synchronize_sched() were added after that.
Later commit 40190a78f8 ("sched/hotplug: Convert cpu_[in]active
notifiers to state machine") added a new CPUHP_AP_ACTIVE hotplug
state to set/clear cpu_active_mask. The following commit b2454caa89
("sched/hotplug: Move sync_rcu to be with set_cpu_active(false)")
move the synchronize_*() calls to sched_cpu_deactivate() associated
with the new hotplug state, but left the comment behind.

reference count leaks which are caused by:

perf_mmap_close() to ignore the unmap or unmap the wrong buffer.
- Several internal issues of perf_mmap(), which can cause reference count
leaks in the perf mmap, corrupt accounting or cause leaks in perf

The main fix is to prevent VMA splits by implementing the [may_]split()
callback for vm operations. The other issues are addressed by rearranging
code, early returns on failure and invocation of cleanups.
Also provide a selftest to validate the fixes.
The reference counting should be converted to refcount_t, but that requires

on recent Gentoo Linux installations that support using bsdtar from
libarchive instead.

executable used, e.g. by specifying:

The perf mmap code is careful about mmap()'ing the user page with the
ringbuffer and additionally the auxiliary buffer, when the event supports
it. Once the first mapping is established, subsequent mapping have to use
the same offset and the same size in both cases. The reference counting for
the ringbuffer and the auxiliary buffer depends on this being correct.
Though perf does not prevent that a related mapping is split via mmap(2),
munmap(2) or mremap(2). A split of a VMA results in perf_mmap_open() calls,
which take reference counts, but then the subsequent perf_mmap_close()
calls are not longer fulfilling the offset and size checks. This leads to
reference count leaks.
As perf already has the requirement for subsequent mappings to match the
initial mapping, the obvious consequence is that VMA splits, caused by
resizing of a mapping or partial unmapping, have to be prevented.
Implement the vm_operations_struct::may_split() callback and return
unconditionally -EINVAL.
That ensures that the mapping offsets and sizes cannot be changed after the
fact. Remapping to a different fixed address with the same size is still
possible as it takes the references for the new mapping and drops those of
the old mapping.

After successful allocation of a buffer or a successful attachment to an
existing buffer perf_mmap() tries to map the buffer read only into the page
table. If that fails, the already set up page table entries are zapped, but
the other perf specific side effects of that failure are not handled. The
calling code just cleans up the VMA and does not invoke perf_mmap_close().
This leaks reference counts, corrupts user->vm accounting and also results
in an unbalanced invocation of event::event_mapped().
Cure this by moving the event::event_mapped() invocation before the
map_range() call so that on map_range() failure perf_mmap_close() can be
invoked without causing an unbalanced event::event_unmapped() call.
perf_mmap_close() undoes the reference counts and eventually frees buffers.

When perf_mmap() fails to allocate a buffer, it still invokes the
event_mapped() callback of the related event. On X86 this might increase
the perf_rdpmc_allowed reference counter. But nothing undoes this as
perf_mmap_close() is never called in this case, which causes another
reference count leak.
Return early on failure to prevent that.

The old method just printed all non-pointer values as signed integers,
which made it even worse for unsigned integers.

Use atomic_long_try_cmpxchg() instead of

x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves
a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).
Also, atomic_long_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old"
when cmpxchg fails, enabling further code simplifications.

The type of u argument of atomic_long_inc_below() should be long to avoid
unwanted truncation to int.
The patch fixes the wrong argument type of an internal function to
prevent unwanted argument truncation. It fixes an internal locking
primitive; it should not have any direct effect on userspace.
Mark said
: AFAICT there's no problem in practice because atomic_long_inc_below()
: is only used by inc_ucount(), and it looks like the value is
: constrained between 0 and INT_MAX.
:
: In inc_ucount() the limit value is taken from
: user_namespace::ucount_max[], and AFAICT that's only written by
: sysctls, to the table setup by setup_userns_sysctls(), where
: UCOUNT_ENTRY() limits the value between 0 and INT_MAX.

: This is certainly a cleanup, but there might be no functional issue in

When booting a new kernel with kexec_file, the kernel picks a target
location that the kernel should live at, then allocates random pages,
checks whether any of those patches magically happens to coincide with a
target address range and if so, uses them for that range.
For every page allocated this way, it then creates a page list that the
relocation code - code that executes while all CPUs are off and we are
just about to jump into the new kernel - copies to their final memory
location. We can not put them there before, because chances are pretty
good that at least some page in the target range is already in use by the
currently running Linux environment. Copying is happening from a single
CPU at RAM rate, which takes around 4-50 ms per 100 MiB.
All of this is inefficient and error prone.
To successfully kexec, we need to quiesce all devices of the outgoing
kernel so they don't scribble over the new kernel's memory. We have seen
cases where that does not happen properly (*cough* GIC *cough*) and hence
the new kernel was corrupted. This started a month long journey to root
cause failing kexecs to eventually see memory corruption, because the new
kernel was corrupted severely enough that it could not emit output to tell
us about the fact that it was corrupted. By allocating memory for the
next kernel from a memory range that is guaranteed scribbling free, we can
boot the next kernel up to a point where it is at least able to detect
corruption and maybe even stop it before it becomes severe. This
increases the chance for successful kexecs.
Since kexec got introduced, Linux has gained the CMA framework which can
perform physically contiguous memory mappings, while keeping that memory
available for movable memory when it is not needed for contiguous
allocations. The default CMA allocator is for DMA allocations.
This patch adds logic to the kexec file loader to attempt to place the
target payload at a location allocated from CMA. If successful, it uses
that memory range directly instead of creating copy instructions during
the hot phase. To ensure that there is a safety net in case anything goes
wrong with the CMA allocation, it also adds a flag for user space to force
disable CMA allocations.
Using CMA allocations has two advantages:
1) Faster by 4-50 ms per 100 MiB. There is no more need to copy in the
hot phase.
2) More robust. Even if by accident some page is still in use for DMA,
the new kernel image will be safe from that access because it resides
in a memory region that is considered allocated in the old kernel and
has a chance to reinitialize that component.

env->scc_info array contains references to bpf_scc_info objects
allocated lazily in verifier.c:scc_visit_alloc().
env->scc_cnt was supposed to track env->scc_info array size
in order to free referenced objects in verifier.c:free_states().
Fix initialization of env->scc_cnt that was omitted in
verifier.c:compute_scc().
To reproduce the bug:
- build with CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK
- boot and load bpf program with loops, e.g.:
./veristat -q pyperf180.bpf.o
- initiate memleak scan and check results:
echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

Futex hash allocations are done in mm_init() and the cleanup happens in
__mmput(). That works most of the time, but there are mm instances which
are instantiated via mm_alloc() and freed via mmdrop(), which causes the
futex hash to be leaked.
Move the cleanup to __mmdrop().

Most function arguments that are passed in as unsigned int or unsigned
long are better displayed as hexadecimal than normal integer. For example,
the functions:
static void __create_object(unsigned long ptr, size_t size,
int min_count, gfp_t gfp, unsigned int objflags);
static bool stack_access_ok(struct unwind_state *state, unsigned long _addr,
size_t len);
void __local_bh_disable_ip(unsigned long ip, unsigned int cnt);
Show up in the trace as:
__create_object(ptr=-131387050520576, size=4096, min_count=1, gfp=3264, objflags=0) <-kmem_cache_alloc_noprof
stack_access_ok(state=0xffffc9000233fc98, _addr=-60473102566256, len=8) <-unwind_next_frame
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=-2127311112, cnt=256) <-handle_softirqs
Instead, by displaying unsigned as hexadecimal, they look more like this:
__create_object(ptr=0xffff8881028d2080, size=0x280, min_count=1, gfp=0x82820, objflags=0x0) <-kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof
stack_access_ok(state=0xffffc90000003938, _addr=0xffffc90000003930, len=0x8) <-unwind_next_frame
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=0xffffffff8133cef8, cnt=0x100) <-handle_softirqs
Which is much easier to understand as most unsigned longs are usually just
pointers. Even the "unsigned int cnt" in __local_bh_disable_ip() looks
better as hexadecimal as a lot of flags are passed as unsigned.

- Consolidate definition of PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_WAIT_MS (100ms), the
required delay between a reset and sending config requests to a
device (Niklas Cassel)
- Add pci_is_display() to check for "Display" base class and use it
in ALSA hda, vfio, vga_switcheroo, vt-d (Mario Limonciello)

function 0) for LoongArch, similar to s390 and jailhouse (Huacai
Chen)
Power control:
- Add ability to enable optional slot clock for cases where the PCIe
host controller and the slot are supplied by different clocks
(Marek Vasut)
PCIe native device hotplug:

xilinx-dma, xilinx-nwl from using pci_msi_create_irq_domain() to
using msi_create_parent_irq_domain() instead; this makes the
interrupt controller per-PCI device, allows dynamic allocation of
vectors after initialization, and allows support of IMS (Nam Cao)
APM X-Gene PCIe controller driver:
- Rewrite MSI handling to MSI CPU affinity, drop useless CPU hotplug
bits, use device-managed memory allocations, and clean things up
(Marc Zyngier)

Some calls to the tracing ring buffer can happen when the ring buffer is
already being written to by the same context (for example, a
trace_printk() in between a ring_buffer_lock_reserve() and a
ring_buffer_unlock_commit()).
In order to not trigger the recursion detection, these functions use
ring_buffer_nest_start() and ring_buffer_nest_end(). Create a guard() for
these functions so that their use cases can be simplified and not need to
use goto for the release.

Several places in the trace.c file there's a goto out where the out is
simply a return. There's no reason to jump to the out label if it's not
doing any more logic but simply returning from the function.
Replace the goto outs with a return and remove the out labels.

- Deprecate auto-mounting tracefs to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
When tracefs was first introduced back in 2014, the directory
/sys/kernel/tracing was added and is the designated location to mount
tracefs. To keep backward compatibility, tracefs was auto-mounted in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing as well.
All distros now mount tracefs on /sys/kernel/tracing. Having it seen in two
different locations has lead to various issues and inconsistencies.
The VFS folks have to also maintain debugfs_create_automount() for this
single user.
It's been over 10 years. Tooling and scripts should start replacing the
debugfs location with the tracefs one. The reason tracefs was created in the
first place was to allow access to the tracing facilities without the need
to configure debugfs into the kernel. Using tracefs should now be more
robust.
A new config is created: CONFIG_TRACEFS_AUTOMOUNT_DEPRECATED
which is default y, so that the kernel is still built with the automount.
This config allows those that want to remove the automount from debugfs to
do so.
When tracefs is accessed from /sys/kernel/debug/tracing, the following
printk is triggerd:
pr_warn("NOTICE: Automounting of tracing to debugfs is deprecated and will be removed in 2030\n");
This gives users another 5 years to fix their scripts.
- Use queue_rcu_work() instead of call_rcu() for freeing event filters
The number of filters to be free can be many depending on the number of
events within an event system. Freeing them from softirq context can
potentially cause undesired latency. Use the RCU workqueue to free them
instead.
- Remove pointless memory barriers in latency code
Memory barriers were added to some of the latency code a long time ago with
the idea of "making them visible", but that's not what memory barriers are
for. They are to synchronize access between different variables. There was
no synchronization here making them pointless.
- Remove "__attribute__()" from the type field of event format
When LLVM is used to compile the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y and
PAHOLE_HAS_BTF_TAG=y, some of the format fields get expanded with the
following:
field:const char * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
Turns into:
field:const char __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user"))) * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
This confuses parsers. Add code to strip these tags from the strings.
- Add eprobe config option CONFIG_EPROBE_EVENTS
Eprobes were added back in 5.15 but were only enabled when another probe was
enabled (kprobe, fprobe, uprobe, etc). The eprobes had no config option
of their own. Add one as they should be a separate entity.
It's default y to keep with the old kernels but still has dependencies on
TRACING and HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API.
- Add eprobe documentation
When eprobes were added back in 5.15 no documentation was added to describe
them. This needs to be rectified.
- Replace open coded cpumask_next_wrap() in move_to_next_cpu()
- Have preemptirq_delay_run() use off-stack CPU mask
- Remove obsolete comment about pelt_cfs event
DECLARE_TRACE() appends "_tp" to trace events now, but the comment above
pelt_cfs still mentioned appending it manually.
- Remove EVENT_FILE_FL_SOFT_MODE flag
The SOFT_MODE flag was required when the soft enabling and disabling of
trace events was first introduced. But there was a bug with this approach
as it only worked for a single instance. When multiple users required soft
disabling and disabling the code was changed to have a ref count. The
SOFT_MODE flag is now set iff the ref count is non zero. This is redundant
and just reading the ref count is good enough.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Deprecate auto-mounting tracefs to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
When tracefs was first introduced back in 2014, the directory
/sys/kernel/tracing was added and is the designated location to mount
tracefs. To keep backward compatibility, tracefs was auto-mounted in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing as well.
All distros now mount tracefs on /sys/kernel/tracing. Having it seen
in two different locations has lead to various issues and
inconsistencies.
The VFS folks have to also maintain debugfs_create_automount() for
this single user.
It's been over 10 years. Tooling and scripts should start replacing
the debugfs location with the tracefs one. The reason tracefs was
created in the first place was to allow access to the tracing
facilities without the need to configure debugfs into the kernel.
Using tracefs should now be more robust.
A new config is created: CONFIG_TRACEFS_AUTOMOUNT_DEPRECATED which is
default y, so that the kernel is still built with the automount. This
config allows those that want to remove the automount from debugfs to
do so.
When tracefs is accessed from /sys/kernel/debug/tracing, the
following printk is triggerd:
pr_warn("NOTICE: Automounting of tracing to debugfs is deprecated and will be removed in 2030\n");
This gives users another 5 years to fix their scripts.
- Use queue_rcu_work() instead of call_rcu() for freeing event filters
The number of filters to be free can be many depending on the number
of events within an event system. Freeing them from softirq context
can potentially cause undesired latency. Use the RCU workqueue to
free them instead.
- Remove pointless memory barriers in latency code
Memory barriers were added to some of the latency code a long time
ago with the idea of "making them visible", but that's not what
memory barriers are for. They are to synchronize access between
different variables. There was no synchronization here making them
pointless.
- Remove "__attribute__()" from the type field of event format
When LLVM is used to compile the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
and PAHOLE_HAS_BTF_TAG=y, some of the format fields get expanded with
the following:
field:const char * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
Turns into:
field:const char __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user"))) * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
This confuses parsers. Add code to strip these tags from the strings.
- Add eprobe config option CONFIG_EPROBE_EVENTS
Eprobes were added back in 5.15 but were only enabled when another
probe was enabled (kprobe, fprobe, uprobe, etc). The eprobes had no
config option of their own. Add one as they should be a separate
entity.
It's default y to keep with the old kernels but still has
dependencies on TRACING and HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API.
- Add eprobe documentation
When eprobes were added back in 5.15 no documentation was added to
describe them. This needs to be rectified.
- Replace open coded cpumask_next_wrap() in move_to_next_cpu()
- Have preemptirq_delay_run() use off-stack CPU mask
- Remove obsolete comment about pelt_cfs event
DECLARE_TRACE() appends "_tp" to trace events now, but the comment
above pelt_cfs still mentioned appending it manually.
- Remove EVENT_FILE_FL_SOFT_MODE flag
The SOFT_MODE flag was required when the soft enabling and disabling
of trace events was first introduced. But there was a bug with this
approach as it only worked for a single instance. When multiple users
required soft disabling and disabling the code was changed to have a
ref count. The SOFT_MODE flag is now set iff the ref count is non
zero. This is redundant and just reading the ref count is good
enough.

This is the core infrastructure for the deferred unwinder that is required
for sframes[1]. Several other patch series is based on this work although
those patch series are not dependent on each other. In order to simplify the
development, having this core series upstream will allow the other series to
be worked on in parallel. The other series are:
- The two patches to implement x86:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717004958.260781923@kernel.org/https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717004958.432327787@kernel.org/
- The s390 work:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250710163522.3195293-1-jremus@linux.ibm.com/
- The perf work:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250718164119.089692174@kernel.org/
- The ftrace work:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250424192612.505622711@goodmis.org/
- The sframe work:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250717012848.927473176@kernel.org/
And more is on the way.
The core infrastructure adds the following in kernel APIs:
- int unwind_user_faultable(struct unwind_stacktrace *trace);
Performs a user space stack trace that may fault user pages in.
- int unwind_deferred_init(struct unwind_work *work, unwind_callback_t func);
Allows a tracer to register with the unwind deferred infrastructure.
- int unwind_deferred_request(struct unwind_work *work, u64 *cookie);
Used when a tracer request a deferred trace. Can be called from interrupt
or NMI context.
- void unwind_deferred_cancel(struct unwind_work *work);
Called by a tracer to unregister from the deferred unwind infrastructure.
- void unwind_deferred_task_exit(struct task_struct *task);
Called by task exit code to flush any pending unwind requests.
- void unwind_task_init(struct task_struct *task);
Called by do_fork() to initialize the task struct for the deferred
unwinder.
- void unwind_task_free(struct task_struct *task);
Called by do_exit() to free up any resources used by the deferred
unwinder.
None of the above is actually compiled unless an architecture enables it,
which none currently do.

than half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
- The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
__folio_split()!
- The 7 patch series "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" from Dev
Jain provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
- The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm
volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" from wang lian does some
cleanup work in the selftests code.
- The 3 patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" from Lorenzo
Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
- The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
tests all possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present
minimal subset.

expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.

removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)

"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().

augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.

does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing

more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal

Lonial reported that an out-of-bounds access in cgroup local storage
can be crafted via tail calls. Given two programs each utilizing a
cgroup local storage with a different value size, and one program
doing a tail call into the other. The verifier will validate each of
the indivial programs just fine. However, in the runtime context
the bpf_cg_run_ctx holds an bpf_prog_array_item which contains the
BPF program as well as any cgroup local storage flavor the program
uses. Helpers such as bpf_get_local_storage() pick this up from the
runtime context:
ctx = container_of(current->bpf_ctx, struct bpf_cg_run_ctx, run_ctx);
storage = ctx->prog_item->cgroup_storage[stype];
if (stype == BPF_CGROUP_STORAGE_SHARED)
ptr = &READ_ONCE(storage->buf)->data[0];
else
ptr = this_cpu_ptr(storage->percpu_buf);
For the second program which was called from the originally attached
one, this means bpf_get_local_storage() will pick up the former
program's map, not its own. With mismatching sizes, this can result
in an unintended out-of-bounds access.
To fix this issue, we need to extend bpf_map_owner with an array of
storage_cookie[] to match on i) the exact maps from the original
program if the second program was using bpf_get_local_storage(), or
ii) allow the tail call combination if the second program was not
using any of the cgroup local storage maps.

Given this is only relevant for BPF tail call maps, it is adding up space

The current algorithm of picking a random CPU works OK for dense online
cpumask, but if cpumask is non-dense, the distribution of picked CPUs
is skewed.
For example, on 8-CPU board with CPUs 4-7 offlined, the probability of
selecting CPU 0 is 5/8. Accordingly, cpus 1, 2 and 3 are chosen with
probability 1/8 each. The proper algorithm should pick each online CPU
with probability 1/4.
Switch it to cpumask_random(), which has better statistical
characteristics.

On do_exit() when a task is exiting, if a unwind is requested and the
deferred user stacktrace is deferred via the task_work, the task_work
callback is called after exit_mm() is called in do_exit(). This means that
the user stack trace will not be retrieved and an empty stack is created.
Instead, add a function unwind_deferred_task_exit() and call it just
before exit_mm() so that the unwinder can call the requested callbacks
with the user space stack.

Instead of using the callback_mutex to protect the link list of callbacks
in unwind_deferred_task_work(), use SRCU instead. This gets called every
time a task exits that has to record a stack trace that was requested.
This can happen for many tasks on several CPUs at the same time. A mutex
is a bottleneck and can cause a bit of contention and slow down performance.
As the callbacks themselves are allowed to sleep, regular RCU cannot be
used to protect the list. Instead use SRCU, as that still allows the
callbacks to sleep and the list can be read without needing to hold the
callback_mutex.

On the way back to user space, the function unwind_reset_info() is called
unconditionally (but always inlined). It currently has two conditionals.
One that checks the unwind_mask which is set whenever a deferred trace is
called and is used to know that the mask needs to be cleared. The other
checks if the cache has been allocated, and if so, it resets the
nr_entries so that the unwinder knows it needs to do the work to get a new
user space stack trace again (it only does it once per entering the
kernel).
Use one of the bits in the unwind mask as a "USED" bit that gets set
whenever a trace is created. This will make it possible to only check the
unwind_mask in the unwind_reset_info() to know if it needs to do work or
not and eliminates a conditional that happens every time the task goes
back to user space.

If there's more than one registered tracer to the unwind deferred
infrastructure, it is currently possible that one tracer could cause extra
callbacks to happen for another tracer if the former requests a deferred
stacktrace after the latter's callback was executed and before the task
went back to user space.
Here's an example of how this could occur:
[Task enters kernel]
tracer 1 request -> add cookie to its buffer
tracer 1 request -> add cookie to its buffer
<..>
[ task work executes ]
tracer 1 callback -> add trace + cookie to its buffer
[tracer 2 requests and triggers the task work again]
[ task work executes again ]
tracer 1 callback -> add trace + cookie to its buffer
tracer 2 callback -> add trace + cookie to its buffer
[Task exits back to user space]
This is because the bit for tracer 1 gets set in the task's unwind_mask
when it did its request and does not get cleared until the task returns
back to user space. But if another tracer were to request another deferred
stacktrace, then the next task work will executed all tracer's callbacks
that have their bits set in the task's unwind_mask.
To fix this issue, add another mask called unwind_completed and place it
into the task's info->cache structure. The cache structure is allocated
on the first occurrence of a deferred stacktrace and this unwind_completed
mask is not needed until then. It's better to have it in the cache than to
permanently waste space in the task_struct.
After a tracer's callback is executed, it's bit gets set in this
unwind_completed mask. When the task_work enters, it will AND the task's
unwind_mask with the inverse of the unwind_completed which will eliminate
any work that already had its callback executed since the task entered the
kernel.
When the task leaves the kernel, it will reset this unwind_completed mask
just like it resets the other values as it enters user space.

In order to know which registered callback requested a stacktrace for when
the task goes back to user space, add a bitmask to keep track of all
registered tracers. The bitmask is the size of long, which means that on a
32 bit machine, it can have at most 32 registered tracers, and on 64 bit,
it can have at most 64 registered tracers. This should not be an issue as
there should not be more than 10 (unless BPF can abuse this?).
When a tracer registers with unwind_deferred_init() it will get a bit
number assigned to it. When a tracer requests a stacktrace, it will have
its bit set within the task_struct. When the task returns back to user
space, it will call the callbacks for all the registered tracers where
their bits are set in the task's mask.
When a tracer is removed by the unwind_deferred_cancel() all current tasks
will clear the associated bit, just in case another tracer gets registered
immediately afterward and then gets their callback called unexpectedly.
To prevent live locks from happening if an event that happens between the
task_work and when the task goes back to user space, triggers the deferred
unwind, have the unwind_mask get cleared on exit to user space and not
after the callback is made.
Move the pending bit from a value on the task_struct to bit zero of the
unwind_mask (saves space on the task_struct). This will allow modifying
the pending bit along with the work bits atomically.
Instead of clearing a work's bit after its callback is called, it is
delayed until exit. If the work is requested again, the task_work is not
queued again and the request will be notified that the task has already been
called by returning a positive number (the same as if it was already
pending).
The pending bit is cleared before calling the callback functions but the
current work bits remain. If one of the called works registers again, it
will not trigger a task_work if its bit is still present in the task's
unwind_mask.
If a new work requests a deferred unwind, then it will set both the
pending bit and its own bit. Note this will also cause any work that was
previously queued and had their callback already executed to be executed
again. Future work will remove these spurious callbacks.
The use of atomic_long bit operations were suggested by Peter Zijlstra:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250715102912.GQ1613200@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net/
The unwind_mask could not be converted to atomic_long_t do to atomic_long
not having all the bit operations needed by unwind_mask. Instead it
follows other use cases in the kernel and just typecasts the unwind_mask
to atomic_long_t when using the two atomic_long functions.

cmpxchg. If an architecture requests a deferred stack trace from NMI
context that does not support a safe NMI cmpxchg, it will get an -EINVAL
and trigger a warning. For those architectures, they would need another
method (perhaps an irqwork), to request a deferred user space stack trace.
That can be dealt with later if one of theses architectures require this
feature.

Add an interface for scheduling task work to unwind the user space stack
before returning to user space. This solves several problems for its
callers:
- Ensure the unwind happens in task context even if the caller may be
running in interrupt context.
- Avoid duplicate unwinds, whether called multiple times by the same
caller or by different callers.
- Create a "context cookie" which allows trace post-processing to
correlate kernel unwinds/traces with the user unwind.
A concept of a "cookie" is created to detect when the stacktrace is the
same. A cookie is generated the first time a user space stacktrace is
requested after the task enters the kernel. As the stacktrace is saved on
the task_struct while the task is in the kernel, if another request comes
in, if the cookie is still the same, it will use the saved stacktrace,
and not have to regenerate one.
The cookie is passed to the caller on request, and when the stacktrace is
generated upon returning to user space, it calls the requester's callback
with the cookie as well as the stacktrace. The cookie is cleared
when it goes back to user space. Note, this currently adds another
conditional to the unwind_reset_info() path that is always called
returning to user space, but future changes will put this back to a single
conditional.
A global list is created and protected by a global mutex that holds
tracers that register with the unwind infrastructure. The number of
registered tracers will be limited in future changes. Each perf program or
ftrace instance will register its own descriptor to use for deferred
unwind stack traces.
Note, in the function unwind_deferred_task_work() that gets called when
returning to user space, it uses a global mutex for synchronization which
will cause a big bottleneck. This will be replaced by SRCU, but that
change adds some complex synchronization that deservers its own commit.

Cache the results of the unwind to ensure the unwind is only performed
once, even when called by multiple tracers.
The cache nr_entries gets cleared every time the task exits the kernel.
When a stacktrace is requested, nr_entries gets set to the number of
entries in the stacktrace. If another stacktrace is requested, if
nr_entries is not zero, then it contains the same stacktrace that would be
retrieved so it is not processed again and the entries is given to the
caller.

Use the MODULE_NAME_LEN definition in module_exists() to obtain the maximum
size of a module name, instead of using MAX_PARAM_PREFIX_LEN. The values
are the same but MODULE_NAME_LEN is more appropriate in this context.
MAX_PARAM_PREFIX_LEN was added in commit 730b69d225 ("module: check
kernel param length at compile time, not runtime") only to break a circular
dependency between module.h and moduleparam.h, and should mostly be limited
to use in moduleparam.h.

The variable last_unloaded_module::name tracks the name of the last
unloaded module. It is a string copy of module::name, which is
MODULE_NAME_LEN bytes in size and includes the NUL terminator. Therefore,
the size of last_unloaded_module::name can also be just MODULE_NAME_LEN,
without the need for an extra byte.

Passing a module name longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN to the delete_module
syscall results in its silent truncation. This really isn't much of
a problem in practice, but it could theoretically lead to the removal of an
incorrect module. It is more sensible to return ENAMETOOLONG or ENOENT in
such a case.
Update the syscall to return ENOENT, as documented in the delete_module(2)
man page to mean "No module by that name exists." This is appropriate
because a module with a name longer than MODULE_NAME_LEN cannot be loaded
in the first place.

The struct was moved to the public header file in commit c8e21ced08

Back then the structure was used outside of the module core.
Nowadays this is not true anymore, so the structure can be made internal.

- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for
arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt
translation and wired interrupts.
- Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on
GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface.
- Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing
userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware
that previously advertised it unconditionally.
- Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems
with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache
maintenance on the address range.
- Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest
hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of
masked external aborts to the hypervisor.
- Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven
implementation.
- Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system
registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG
vCPU ioctls.
- Various cleanups and minor fixes.
LoongArch:
- Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip
- Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits
- Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation
- Various cleanups.
RISC-V:
- Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking
- Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events
- Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode
- MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization
s390x
- Fixes
x86:
- Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC,
PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time.
- Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and
harden it against bugs and runtime errors.
- Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1)
instead of O(n).
- For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to
(host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using
VFIO is prone to false negatives
- Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or
less identical.
- Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes,
instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps.
- Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction
that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated
independently.
- Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU
in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU
into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every possible path
leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard and even risks
breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid state but passes
through invalid states), so just wait until KVM_RUN to detect that
the vCPU state isn't allowed.
- Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of
APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can access
APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed
on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved
over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever
you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU
frequency in /proc/cpuinfo.
- Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been
created, as there's no known use case for changing the default
frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason
why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there
would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure"
TSC, so kill two birds with one stone.
- Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer
allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU
doesn't use the list).
- Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC
state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for
Secure AVIC.
- Various cleanups and fixes.
x86 (Intel):
- Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest.
Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests.
- Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to prevent
L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF.
x86 (AMD):
- WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the
nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which is pretty
much a static condition and therefore should never happen, but still).
- Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code.
- Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware
supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation.
- Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving
IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry.
- Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by
erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs.
- Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking,
i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU.
- Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the
vCPU's CPUID model.
- Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect to
SMT and single-socket restrictions. An incompatible policy doesn't put
the kernel at risk in any way, so there's no reason for KVM to care.
- Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM and
use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible for SEV cache maintenance.
- When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on CPUs
that have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the caches for
CPUs that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty, encrypted data.
Generic:
- Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray
instead of a linked list. Using a linked list leads to O(n^2) insertion
times, which is hugely problematic for use cases that create large
numbers of VMs. Such use cases typically don't actually use irqbypass,
but eliminating the pointless registration is a future problem to
solve as it likely requires new uAPI.
- Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a "void *",
to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult to understand.
- Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding a VM
to a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device posted IRQs.
- Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code.
- Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter,
i.e. ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd through the entire
host, and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd bindings are globally
unique.
- Add a tracepoint for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to help debug issues
related to private <=> shared memory conversions.
- Drop guest_memfd's .getattr() implementation as the VFS layer will call
generic_fillattr() if inode_operations.getattr is NULL.
- Fix issues with dirty ring harvesting where KVM doesn't bound the
processing of entries in any way, which allows userspace to keep KVM
in a tight loop indefinitely.
- Kill off kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment() and x86's associated tracking,
now that KVM no longer uses assigned_device_count as a heuristic for
either irqbypass usage or MDS mitigation.
Selftests:
- Fix a comment typo.
- Verify KVM is loaded when getting any KVM module param so that attempting
to run a selftest without kvm.ko loaded results in a SKIP message about
KVM not being loaded/enabled (versus some random parameter not existing).
- Skip tests that hit EACCES when attempting to access a file, and rpint
a "Root required?" help message. In most cases, the test just needs to
be run with elevated permissions.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for
arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt
translation and wired interrupts
- Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on
GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface
- Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing
userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on
hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally
- Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on
systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to
perform cache maintenance on the address range
- Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the
guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take
traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor
- Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven
implementation
- Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3
system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the
ONE_REG vCPU ioctls
- Various cleanups and minor fixes
LoongArch:
- Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip
- Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits
- Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation
- Various cleanups
RISC-V:
- Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking
- Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events
- Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode
- MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization
s390x
- Fixes
x86:
- Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O
APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time
- Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it
against bugs and runtime errors
- Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups
O(1) instead of O(n)
- For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has
access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO
pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives
- Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are
more or less identical
- Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes,
instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps
- Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction
that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated
independently
- Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the
vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting
the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every
possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard
and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid
state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until
KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed
- Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling
interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured
VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF
cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and
resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration)
but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux
guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo
- Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been

frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason

- Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application

may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority inheritance.
However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these real-time

- Rewind persistent ring buffer on boot
When the persistent ring buffer is being used for live kernel tracing and
the system crashes, the tool that is reading the trace may not have recorded
the data when the system crashed. Although the persistent ring buffer still
has that data, when reading it after a reboot, it will start where it left
off. That is, what was read will not be accessible.
Instead, on reboot, have the persistent ring buffer restart where the data
starts and this will allow the tooling to recover what was lost when the
crash occurred.
- Remove the ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync() logic
Reading the trace file required stopping writing to the ring buffer as the
trace file is only an iterator and does not consume what it read. It was
originally not safe to read the ring buffer in this mode and required
disabling writing. The ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync() logic was used to
stop each per_cpu ring buffer, call synchronize_rcu() and then start the
iterator. This was used instead of calling synchronize_rcu() for each
per_cpu buffer.
Today, the iterator has been updated where it is safe to read the trace file
while writing to the ring buffer is still occurring. There is no more need
to do this synchronization and it is causing large delays on machines with
many CPUs. Remove this unneeded synchronization.
- Make static string array a constant in show_irq_str()
Making the string array into a constant has shown to decrease code text/data
size.

Keep accounting of when fgraph_ops are registered as if a fgraph_ops is
registered twice it can mess up the accounting and it will not work as

catch bugs before they are found by things just not working as expected.
- Make DYNAMIC_FTRACE always enabled for architectures that support it
As static ftrace (where all functions are always traced) is very expensive
and only exists to help architectures support ftrace, do not make it an
option. As soon as an architecture supports DYNAMIC_FTRACE make it use it.
This simplifies the code.
- Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the

DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant

As static ftrace (where all functions are always traced) is very
expensive and only exists to help architectures support ftrace, do
not make it an option. As soon as an architecture supports
DYNAMIC_FTRACE make it use it. This simplifies the code.
- Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it
redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
- Make pid_ptr string size match the comment
In print_graph_proc() the pid_ptr string is of size 11, but the
comment says /* sign + log10(MAX_INT) + '\0' */ which is actually 12.

Core & protocols
----------------
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing.
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container).
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX.
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK.
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP.
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface.
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB.
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users.
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque.
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly once.
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code.
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel NAPI
thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread would stick
around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization.
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets.
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing.
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling.
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink.
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed.
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries.
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM.
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister netconsole's
console when all net targets are removed. Code refactoring.
Add a number of selftests.
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
should be used for an inbound SA lookup.
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS.
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links.
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch.
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack.
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer.
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT.
Driver API
----------
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink.
- Add dedicated ethtool callbacks for getting and setting hashing fields.
- Add support for power budget evaluation strategy in PSE /
Power-over-Ethernet. Generate Netlink events for overcurrent etc.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Wrap datapath globals into net_aligned_data, to avoid false sharing
- Preserve MSG_ZEROCOPY in forwarding (e.g. out of a container)
- Add SO_INQ and SCM_INQ support to AF_UNIX
- Add SIOCINQ support to AF_VSOCK
- Add TCP_MAXSEG sockopt to MPTCP
- Add IPv6 force_forwarding sysctl to enable forwarding per interface
- Make TCP validation of whether packet fully fits in the receive
window and the rcv_buf more strict. With increased use of HW
aggregation a single "packet" can be multiple 100s of kB
- Add MSG_MORE flag to optimize large TCP transmissions via sockmap,
improves latency up to 33% for sockmap users
- Convert TCP send queue handling from tasklet to BH workque
- Improve BPF iteration over TCP sockets to see each socket exactly
once
- Remove obsolete and unused TCP RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery code
- Support enabling kernel threads for NAPI processing on per-NAPI
instance basis rather than a whole device. Fully stop the kernel
NAPI thread when threaded NAPI gets disabled. Previously thread
would stick around until ifdown due to tricky synchronization
- Allow multicast routing to take effect on locally-generated packets
- Add output interface argument for End.X in segment routing
- MCTP: add support for gateway routing, improve bind() handling
- Don't require rtnl_lock when fetching an IPv6 neighbor over Netlink
- Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid"), which cedes refresh
responsibilities to userspace. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing
where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced
across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed
- Support NUD_PERMANENT for proxy neighbor entries
- Add a new queuing discipline for IETF RFC9332 DualQ Coupled AQM
- Add sequence numbers to netconsole messages. Unregister
netconsole's console when all net targets are removed. Code
refactoring. Add a number of selftests
- Align IPSec inbound SA lookup to RFC 4301. Only SPI and protocol
should be used for an inbound SA lookup
- Support inspecting ref_tracker state via DebugFS
- Don't force bonding advertisement frames tx to ~333 ms boundaries.
Add broadcast_neighbor option to send ARP/ND on all bonded links
- Allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command in openvswitch
- Remove DCCP support from Netfilter's conntrack
- Disallow multiple packet duplications in the queuing layer
- Prevent use of deprecated iptables code on PREEMPT_RT
Driver API:
- Support RSS and hashing configuration over ethtool Netlink

Eprobes were added in 5.15 and were selected whenever any of the other
probe events were selected. If kprobe events were enabled (which it is by
default if kprobes are enabled) it would enable eprobe events as well. The

Have eprobes have its own config and it gets enabled by default if tracing
is enabled.

* Move sysctls out of the kern_table array
This is the final move of ctl_tables into their respective subsystems. Only 5
(out of the original 50) will remain in kernel/sysctl.c file; these handle
either sysctl or common arch variables.
By decentralizing sysctl registrations, subsystem maintainers regain control
over their sysctl interfaces, improving maintainability and reducing the
likelihood of merge conflicts.
* docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs
Stopped falsely identifying sysctls as undocumented or unimplemented in the
check-sysctl-docs script. This script can now be used to automatically
identify if documentation is missing.
* Testing
All these have been in linux-next since rc3, giving them a solid 3 to 4 weeks
worth of testing. Additionally, sysctl selftests and kunit were also run
locally on my x86_64

slices duration, for better handling of lag in the fair
scheduler. (Vincent Guittot)
- Clean up and standardize #if/#else/#endif markers throughout
the entire scheduler code base (Ingo Molnar)
- Make SMP unconditional: build the SMP scheduler's
data structures and logic on UP kernel too, even though
they are not used, to simplify the scheduler and remove
around 200 #ifdef/[#else]/#endif blocks from the
scheduler. (Ingo Molnar)
- Reorganize cgroup bandwidth control interface handling
for better interfacing with sched_ext (Tejun Heo)

- Bump sd->max_newidle_lb_cost when newidle balance fails (Chris Mason)
- Remove sched_domain_topology_level::flags to simplify the code (Prateek Nayak)
- Simplify and clean up build_sched_topology() (Li Chen)
- Optimize build_sched_topology() on large machines (Li Chen)
Real-time scheduling:
- Add initial version of proxy execution: a mechanism for mutex-owning
tasks to inherit the scheduling context of higher priority waiters.
Currently limited to a single runqueue and conditional on CONFIG_EXPERT,
and other limitations. (John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra, Valentin Schneider)
- Deadline scheduler (Juri Lelli):
- Fix dl_servers initialization order (Juri Lelli)
- Fix DL scheduler's root domain reinitialization logic (Juri Lelli)
- Fix accounting bugs after global limits change (Juri Lelli)
- Fix scalability regression by implementing less agressive dl_server handling
(Peter Zijlstra)
PSI:
- Improve scalability by optimizing psi_group_change() cpu_clock() usage

- Introduce support for auxiliary timekeepers
PTP clocks can be disconnected from the universal CLOCK_TAI reality
for various reasons including regularatory requirements for
functional safety redundancy.
The kernel so far only supports a single notion of time, which means
that all clocks are correlated in frequency and only differ by
offset to each other.
Access to non-correlated PTP clocks has been available so far only
through the file descriptor based "POSIX clock IDs", which are
subject to locking and have to go all the way out to the hardware.
The access is not only horribly slow, as it has to go all the way out
to the NIC/PTP hardware, but that also prevents the kernel to read
the time of such clocks e.g. from the network stack, where it is
required for TSN networking both on the transmit and receive side
unless the hardware provides offloading.
The auxiliary clocks provide a mechanism to support arbitrary clocks
which are not correlated to the system clock. This is not restricted
to the PTP use case on purpose as there is no kernel side association
of these clocks to a particular PTP device because that's a pure user
space configuration decision. Having them independent allows to
utilize them for other purposes and also enables them to be tested
without hardware dependencies.
To avoid pointless overhead these clocks have to be enabled
individualy via a new sysfs interface to reduce the overhead to a
single compare in the hotpath if they are enabled at the Kconfig
level at all.
These clocks utilize the existing timekeeping/NTP infrastructures,
which has been made possible over the recent releases by incrementaly
converting these infrastructures over from a single static instance
to a multi-instance pointer based implementation without any
performance regression reported.
The auxiliary clocks provide the same "emulation" of a "correct"
clock as the existing CLOCK_* variants do with an independent
instance of data and provide the same steering mechanism through the
existing sys_clock_adjtime() interface, which has been confirmed to
work by the chronyd(8) maintainer.
That allows to provide lockless kernel internal and VDSO support so
that applications and kernel internal functionalities can access
these clocks without restrictions and at the same performance as the
existing system clocks.
- Avoid double notifications in the adjtimex() syscall. Not a big issue,
but a trivial to avoid latency source.

The initial idea of making them const was correct as they were seperate
instances. When they got embedded into larger data structures, which are
even modified by the callback this got moot. The only reason why this went
unnoticed is that the required container_of() casts the const attribute

Pull timer cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:
"A treewide cleanup of struct cycle_counter const annotations.
The initial idea of making them const was correct as they were
seperate instances. When they got embedded into larger data
structures, which are even modified by the callback this got moot. The
only reason why this went unnoticed is that the required
container_of() casts the const attribute forcefully away.
Stop pretending that it is const"
* tag 'timers-cleanups-2025-07-27' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
time/timecounter: Fix the lie that struct cyclecounter is const
Normally the tracee starts in SECCOMP_NOTIFY_INIT, sends an
event to the tracer, and starts to wait interruptibly. With
SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_WAIT_KILLABLE_RECV, if the tracer receives the
message (SECCOMP_NOTIFY_SENT is reached) while the tracee was waiting
and is subsequently interrupted, the tracee begins to wait again
uninterruptibly (but killable).
This fails if SECCOMP_NOTIFY_REPLIED is reached before the tracee
is interrupted, as the check only considered SECCOMP_NOTIFY_SENT as a
condition to begin waiting again. In this case the tracee is interrupted
even though the tracer already acted on its behalf. This breaks the
assumption SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_WAIT_KILLABLE_RECV wanted to ensure,
namely that the tracer can be sure the syscall is not interrupted or
restarted on the tracee after it is received on the tracer. Fix this
by also considering SECCOMP_NOTIFY_REPLIED when evaluating whether to
switch to uninterruptible waiting.
With the condition changed the loop in seccomp_do_user_notification()
would exit immediately after deciding that noninterruptible waiting
is required if the operation already reached SECCOMP_NOTIFY_REPLIED,
skipping the code that processes pending addfd commands first. Prevent
this by executing the remaining loop body one last time in this case.

- Prevent a interrupt migration related live lock in handle_edge_irq()
If the interrupt affinity is moved to a new target CPU and the
interrupt is currently handled on the previous target CPU for edge type
interrupts the handler might get stuck on the previous target for a
long time, which causes both involved CPUs to waste cycles and
eventually run into a soft-lockup situation.
Solve this by checking whether the interrupt is redirected to a new
target CPU and if the interrupt is handled on that new target CPU, busy
wait for completion instead of masking it and sending the pending but
which would cause the old CPU to re-run the handler and in the worst
case repeating this excercise for a long time.
This only works on architectures which use single CPU interrupt
targets, but that's so far the only ones where this behaviour has been
observed.
- Add a kunit test for interrupt disable depth counts
The nested interrupt disable depth has been an issue in the past
especially vs. free_irq(), interrupt shutdown and CPU hotplug and their
interactions. The test exercises the combinations of these scenarios
and checks for correctness.

Add a new API to retrieve a user space callstack called
unwind_user_faultable(). The difference between this user space stack
tracer from the current user space stack tracer is that this must be
called from faultable context as it may use routines to access user space
data that needs to be faulted in.
It can be safely called from entering or exiting a system call as the code
can still be faulted in there.
This code is based on work by Josh Poimboeuf's deferred unwinding code:

Introduce a generic API for unwinding user stacks.
In order to expand user space unwinding to be able to handle more complex
scenarios, such as deferred unwinding and reading user space information,
create a generic interface that all architectures can use that support the
various unwinding methods.
This is an alternative method for handling user space stack traces from
the simple stack_trace_save_user() API. This does not replace that
interface, but this interface will be used to expand the functionality of
user space stack walking.
None of the structures introduced will be exposed to user space tooling.
Support for frame pointer unwinding is added. For an architecture to
support frame pointer unwinding it needs to enable
CONFIG_HAVE_UNWIND_USER_FP and define ARCH_INIT_USER_FP_FRAME.
By encoding the frame offsets in struct unwind_user_frame, much of this
code can also be reused for future unwinder implementations like sframe.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y and PAHOLE_HAS_BTF_TAG=y, `__user` is
converted to `__attribute__((btf_type_tag("user")))`. In this case,
some syscall events have it for __user data, like below;
/sys/kernel/tracing # cat events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/format
name: sys_enter_openat
ID: 720
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:int __syscall_nr; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
field:int dfd; offset:16; size:8; signed:0;
field:const char __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user"))) * filename; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
field:int flags; offset:32; size:8; signed:0;
field:umode_t mode; offset:40; size:8; signed:0;
Then the trace event filter fails to set the string acceptable flag
(FILTER_PTR_STRING) to the field and rejects setting string filter;
# echo 'filename.ustring ~ "*ftracetest-dir.wbx24v*"' \
>> events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/filter
sh: write error: Invalid argument
# cat error_log
[ 723.743637] event filter parse error: error: Expecting numeric field
Command: filename.ustring ~ "*ftracetest-dir.wbx24v*"
Since this __attribute__ makes format parsing complicated and not
needed, remove the __attribute__(.*) from the type string.

KVM IRQ changes for 6.17
- Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray
instead of a linked list. Using a linked list leads to O(n^2) insertion
times, which is hugely problematic for use cases that create large numbers
of VMs. Such use cases typically don't actually use irqbypass, but
eliminating the pointless registration is a future problem to solve as it
likely requires new uAPI.
- Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a "void *",
to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult to understand.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC,
and PIT emulation at compile time.
- Drop x86's irq_comm.c, and move a pile of IRQ related code into irq.c.
- Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code.
- Inhibited AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware
supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation.
- Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning
clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry.
- Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by
erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs.
- Dedup x86's device posted IRQ code, as the vast majority of functionality
can be shared verbatime between SVM and VMX.
- Harden the device posted IRQ code against bugs and runtime errors.
- Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1)
instead of O(n).
- Generate GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e.
only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU.
- Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding a VM to
a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device posted IRQs.
- Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code.
- Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter, i.e.
ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd through the entire host,
and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd bindings are globally unique.
Since preempt_count_add/del() are tracable functions, it is not allowed
to use preempt_disable/enable() in ftrace handlers. Without this fix,
probing on `preempt_count_add%return` will cause an infinite recursion
of fprobes.
To fix this problem, use preempt_disable/enable_notrace() in
fprobe_return().

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As is tradition, cpufreq is the part with the largest number of
updates that include core fixes and cleanups as well as updates of
several assorted drivers, but there are also quite a few updates
related to system sleep, mostly focused on asynchronous suspend and
resume of devices and on making the integration of system suspend
and resume with runtime PM easier.
Runtime PM is also updated to allow some code duplication in drivers
to be eliminated going forward and to work more consistently overall
in some cases.
Apart from that, there are some driver core updates related to PM
domains that should help to address ordering issues with devm_ cleanup
routines relying on PM domains, some assorted devfreq updates
including core fixes and cleanups, tooling updates, and documentation
and MAINTAINERS updates.

audit,module: restore audit logging in load failure case
This is the main crypto library pull request for 6.17. The main focus
this cycle is on reorganizing the SHA-1 and SHA-2 code, providing
high-quality library APIs for SHA-1 and SHA-2 including HMAC support,
and establishing conventions for lib/crypto/ going forward:
- Migrate the SHA-1 and SHA-512 code (and also SHA-384 which shares
most of the SHA-512 code) into lib/crypto/. This includes both the
generic and architecture-optimized code. Greatly simplify how the
architecture-optimized code is integrated. Add an easy-to-use
library API for each SHA variant, including HMAC support. Finally,
reimplement the crypto_shash support on top of the library API.
- Apply the same reorganization to the SHA-256 code (and also SHA-224
which shares most of the SHA-256 code). This is a somewhat smaller
change, due to my earlier work on SHA-256. But this brings in all
the same additional improvements that I made for SHA-1 and SHA-512.
There are also some smaller changes:
- Move the architecture-optimized ChaCha, Poly1305, and BLAKE2s code
from arch/$(SRCARCH)/lib/crypto/ to lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/. For
these algorithms it's just a move, not a full reorganization yet.
- Fix the MIPS chacha-core.S to build with the clang assembler.
- Fix the Poly1305 functions to work in all contexts.
- Fix a performance regression in the x86_64 Poly1305 code.
- Clean up the x86_64 SHA-NI optimized SHA-1 assembly code.
Note that since the new organization of the SHA code is much simpler,
the diffstat of this pull request is negative, despite the addition of
new fully-documented library APIs for multiple SHA and HMAC-SHA
variants. These APIs will allow further simplifications across the
kernel as users start using them instead of the old-school crypto API.
(I've already written a lot of such conversion patches, removing over
1000 more lines of code. But most of those will target 6.18 or later.)

Merge tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.pidfs' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
- persistent info
Persist exit and coredump information independent of whether anyone
currently holds a pidfd for the struct pid.
The current scheme allocated pidfs dentries on-demand repeatedly.
This scheme is reaching it's limits as it makes it impossible to pin
information that needs to be available after the task has exited or
coredumped and that should not be lost simply because the pidfd got
closed temporarily. The next opener should still see the stashed
information.
This is also a prerequisite for supporting extended attributes on
pidfds to allow attaching meta information to them.
If someone opens a pidfd for a struct pid a pidfs dentry is allocated
and stashed in pid->stashed. Once the last pidfd for the struct pid
is closed the pidfs dentry is released and removed from pid->stashed.
So if 10 callers create a pidfs dentry for the same struct pid
sequentially, i.e., each closing the pidfd before the other creates a
new one then a new pidfs dentry is allocated every time.
Because multiple tasks acquiring and releasing a pidfd for the same
struct pid can race with each another a task may still find a valid
pidfs entry from the previous task in pid->stashed and reuse it. Or
it might find a dead dentry in there and fail to reuse it and so
stashes a new pidfs dentry. Multiple tasks may race to stash a new
pidfs dentry but only one will succeed, the other ones will put their
dentry.
The current scheme aims to ensure that a pidfs dentry for a struct
pid can only be created if the task is still alive or if a pidfs
dentry already existed before the task was reaped and so exit
information has been was stashed in the pidfs inode.
That's great except that it's buggy. If a pidfs dentry is stashed in
pid->stashed after pidfs_exit() but before __unhash_process() is
called we will return a pidfd for a reaped task without exit
information being available.
The pidfds_pid_valid() check does not guard against this race as it
doens't sync at all with pidfs_exit(). The pid_has_task() check might
be successful simply because we're before __unhash_process() but
after pidfs_exit().
Introduce a new scheme where the lifetime of information associated
with a pidfs entry (coredump and exit information) isn't bound to the
lifetime of the pidfs inode but the struct pid itself.
The first time a pidfs dentry is allocated for a struct pid a struct
pidfs_attr will be allocated which will be used to store exit and
coredump information.
If all pidfs for the pidfs dentry are closed the dentry and inode can
be cleaned up but the struct pidfs_attr will stick until the struct
pid itself is freed. This will ensure minimal memory usage while
persisting relevant information.
The new scheme has various advantages. First, it allows to close the
race where we end up handing out a pidfd for a reaped task for which
no exit information is available. Second, it minimizes memory usage.
Third, it allows to remove complex lifetime tracking via dentries
when registering a struct pid with pidfs. There's no need to get or
put a reference. Instead, the lifetime of exit and coredump
information associated with a struct pid is bound to the lifetime of
struct pid itself.
- extended attributes
Now that we have a way to persist information for pidfs dentries we
can start supporting extended attributes on pidfds. This will allow
userspace to attach meta information to tasks.
One natural extension would be to introduce a custom pidfs.* extended
attribute space and allow for the inheritance of extended attributes
across fork() and exec().
The first simple scheme will allow privileged userspace to set
trusted extended attributes on pidfs inodes.
- Allow autonomous pidfs file handles
Various filesystems such as pidfs and drm support opening file
handles without having to require a file descriptor to identify the
filesystem. The filesystem are global single instances and can be
trivially identified solely on the information encoded in the file
handle.
This makes it possible to not have to keep or acquire a sentinal file
descriptor just to pass it to open_by_handle_at() to identify the
filesystem. That's especially useful when such sentinel file
descriptor cannot or should not be acquired.
For pidfs this means a file handle can function as full replacement
for storing a pid in a file. Instead a file handle can be stored and
reopened purely based on the file handle.
Such autonomous file handles can be opened with or without specifying
a a file descriptor. If no proper file descriptor is used the
FD_PIDFS_ROOT sentinel must be passed. This allows us to define
further special negative fd sentinels in the future.
Userspace can trivially test for support by trying to open the file
handle with an invalid file descriptor.
- Allow pidfds for reaped tasks with SCM_PIDFD messages
This is a logical continuation of the earlier work to create pidfds
for reaped tasks through the SO_PEERPIDFD socket option merged in
923ea4d448 ("Merge patch series "net, pidfs: enable handing out
pidfds for reaped sk->sk_peer_pid"").

DA monitor can be accessed from multiple cores simultaneously, this is
likely, for instance when dealing with per-task monitors reacting on
events that do not always occur on the CPU where the task is running.
This can cause race conditions where two events change the next state
and we see inconsistent values. E.g.:
[62] event_srs: 27: sleepable x sched_wakeup -> running (final)
[63] event_srs: 27: sleepable x sched_set_state_sleepable -> sleepable
[63] error_srs: 27: event sched_switch_suspend not expected in the state running
In this case the monitor fails because the event on CPU 62 wins against
the one on CPU 63, although the correct state should have been
sleepable, since the task get suspended.
Detect if the current state was modified by using try_cmpxchg while
storing the next value. If it was, try again reading the current state.
After a maximum number of failed retries, react by calling a special
tracepoint, print on the console and reset the monitor.
Remove the functions da_monitor_curr_state() and da_monitor_set_state()
as they only hide the underlying implementation in this case.
Monitors where this type of condition can occur must be able to account
for racing events in any possible order, as we cannot know the winner.

The buggy address belongs to the variable:

This is caused by the tracepoints reading 32 bytes __array instead of

reading 32 bytes ends up in out of bound memory accesses (e.g. the next

The error is harmless as, while printing the string, we stop at the null

Use the __string facilities while defining the tracepoints to avoid
reading out of bound memory.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.coredump' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull coredump updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains an extension to the coredump socket and a proper rework
of the coredump code.
- This extends the coredump socket to allow the coredump server to
tell the kernel how to process individual coredumps. This allows
for fine-grained coredump management. Userspace can decide to just
let the kernel write out the coredump, or generate the coredump
itself, or just reject it.
* COREDUMP_KERNEL
The kernel will write the coredump data to the socket.
* COREDUMP_USERSPACE
The kernel will not write coredump data but will indicate to the
parent that a coredump has been generated. This is used when
userspace generates its own coredumps.
* COREDUMP_REJECT
The kernel will skip generating a coredump for this task.
* COREDUMP_WAIT
The kernel will prevent the task from exiting until the coredump
server has shutdown the socket connection.
The flexible coredump socket can be enabled by using the "@@"
prefix instead of the single "@" prefix for the regular coredump
socket:
@@/run/systemd/coredump.socket
- Cleanup the coredump code properly while we have to touch it
anyway.
Split out each coredump mode in a separate helper so it's easy to
grasp what is going on and make the code easier to follow. The core
coredump function should now be very trivial to follow"

Commit d7f0087381 ("bpf: try harder to deduce register bounds from
different numeric domains") added a second call to __reg_deduce_bounds
in reg_bounds_sync because a single call wasn't enough to converge to a
fixed point in terms of register bounds.
With patch "bpf: Improve bounds when s64 crosses sign boundary" from
this series, Eduard noticed that calling __reg_deduce_bounds twice isn't
enough anymore to converge. The first selftest added in "selftests/bpf:
Test cross-sign 64bits range refinement" highlights the need for a third
call to __reg_deduce_bounds. After instruction 7, reg_bounds_sync
performs the following bounds deduction:
reg_bounds_sync entry: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146)
__update_reg_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146)
__reg_deduce_bounds:
__reg32_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg64_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,umin=umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_bounds:
__reg32_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=0xeffffeee,umin=umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,smax32=-146,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg64_deduce_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e)
__reg_bound_offset: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e,var_off=(0xfffffffffffffc00; 0x3ff))
__update_reg_bounds: scalar(smin=-655,smax=smax32=-146,umin=0xfffffffffffffd71,umax=0xffffffffffffff6e,smin32=-783,umin32=0xfffffcf1,umax32=0xffffff6e,var_off=(0xfffffffffffffc00; 0x3ff))
In particular, notice how:
1. In the first call to __reg_deduce_bounds, __reg32_deduce_bounds
learns new u32 bounds.
2. __reg64_deduce_bounds is unable to improve bounds at this point.
3. __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds derives new u64 bounds from the u32 bounds.
4. In the second call to __reg_deduce_bounds, __reg64_deduce_bounds
improves the smax and umin bounds thanks to patch "bpf: Improve
bounds when s64 crosses sign boundary" from this series.
5. Subsequent functions are unable to improve the ranges further (only
tnums). Yet, a better smin32 bound could be learned from the smin
bound.
__reg32_deduce_bounds is able to improve smin32 from smin, but for that
we need a third call to __reg_deduce_bounds.
As discussed in [1], there may be a better way to organize the deduction
rules to learn the same information with less calls to the same
functions. Such an optimization requires further analysis and is
orthogonal to the present patchset.

__reg64_deduce_bounds currently improves the s64 range using the u64
range and vice versa, but only if it doesn't cross the sign boundary.
This patch improves __reg64_deduce_bounds to cover the case where the
s64 range crosses the sign boundary but overlaps with the u64 range on
only one end. In that case, we can improve both ranges. Consider the
following example, with the s64 range crossing the sign boundary:
0 U64_MAX
| [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx u64 range xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
|xxxxx s64 range xxxxxxxxx] [xxxxxxx|
0 S64_MAX S64_MIN -1
The u64 range overlaps only with positive portion of the s64 range. We
can thus derive the following new s64 and u64 ranges.
0 U64_MAX
| [xxxxxx u64 range xxxxx] |
|----------------------------|----------------------------|
| [xxxxxx s64 range xxxxx] |
0 S64_MAX S64_MIN -1
The same logic can probably apply to the s32/u32 ranges, but this patch
doesn't implement that change.
In addition to the selftests, the __reg64_deduce_bounds change was
also tested with Agni, the formal verification tool for the range
analysis [1].

Argument 'p' of reactors_show() and monitor_reactor_show() is not a pointer
to struct rv_reactor, it is actually a pointer to the list_head inside
struct rv_reactor. Therefore it's wrong to cast 'p' to struct rv_reactor *.
This wrong type cast has been there since the beginning. But it still
worked because the list_head was the first field in struct rv_reactor_def.
This is no longer true since commit 3d3c376118 ("rv: Merge struct

type cast became a functional problem.
Properly use container_of() instead.

With the introduction of the condition string as part of the 'file'
string output of kernel warnings, the first line has become a bit
harder to read:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at [ptr == 0 && 1] kernel/sched/core.c:8511 sched_init+0x20/0x410
Re-order the fields by importance (higher to lower), make the 'at' meaningful
again, and add '->comm[]' output which is often more valuable than a PID.
Also, remove the 'PID' prefix - in combination with comm it's clear what it is.
These changes make the output only slightly longer:

During the bounds refinement, we improve the precision of various ranges
by looking at other ranges. Among others, we improve the following in
this order (other things happen between 1 and 2):
1. Improve u32 from s32 in __reg32_deduce_bounds.
2. Improve s/u64 from u32 in __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds.
3. Improve s/u64 from s32 in __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds.
In particular, if the s32 range forms a valid u32 range, we will use it
to improve the u32 range in __reg32_deduce_bounds. In
__reg_deduce_mixed_bounds, under the same condition, we will use the s32
range to improve the s/u64 ranges.
If at (1) we were able to learn from s32 to improve u32, we'll then be
able to use that in (2) to improve s/u64. Hence, as (3) happens under
the same precondition as (1), it won't improve s/u64 ranges further than
(1)+(2) did. Thus, we can get rid of (3).
In addition to the extensive suite of selftests for bounds refinement,
this patch was also tested with the Agni formal verification tool [1].
Additionally, Eduard mentioned:
The argument appears to be as follows:
Under precondition `(u32)reg->s32_min <= (u32)reg->s32_max`
__reg32_deduce_bounds produces:
reg->u32_min = max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min);
reg->u32_max = min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max);
And then first part of __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds assigns:
a. reg->umin umax= (reg->umin & ~0xffffffffULL) | max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min);
b. reg->umax umin= (reg->umax & ~0xffffffffULL) | min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max);
And then second part of __reg_deduce_mixed_bounds assigns:
c. reg->umin umax= (reg->umin & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_min;
d. reg->umax umin= (reg->umax & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_max;
But assignment (c) is a noop because:
max_t(u32, reg->s32_min, reg->u32_min) >= (u32)reg->s32_min
Hence RHS(a) >= RHS(c) and umin= does nothing.
Also assignment (d) is a noop because:
min_t(u32, reg->s32_max, reg->u32_max) <= (u32)reg->s32_max
Hence RHS(b) <= RHS(d) and umin= does nothing.
Plus the same reasoning for the part dealing with reg->s{min,max}_value:
e. reg->smin_value smax= (reg->smin_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | max_t(u32, reg->s32_min_value, reg->u32_min_value);
f. reg->smax_value smin= (reg->smax_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | min_t(u32, reg->s32_max_value, reg->u32_max_value);
vs
g. reg->smin_value smax= (reg->smin_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_min_value;
h. reg->smax_value smin= (reg->smax_value & ~0xffffffffULL) | (u32)reg->s32_max_value;
RHS(e) >= RHS(g) and RHS(f) <= RHS(h), hence smax=,smin= do nothing.
This appears to be correct.
Also, Shung-Hsi:
Beside going through the reasoning, I also played with CBMC a bit to
double check that as far as a single run of __reg_deduce_bounds() is
concerned (and that the register state matches certain handwavy
expectations), the change indeed still preserve the original behavior.

The rework of this mechanism added a 'use_nsec' member to struct
system_counterval. get_device_system_crosststamp() instantiates that
struct on the stack and hands a pointer to the driver callback.
Only the drivers which set use_nsec to true, initialize that field, but
all others ignore it. As get_device_system_crosststamp() does not
initialize the struct, the use_nsec field contains random stack content
in those cases. That causes a miscalulation usually resulting in a
failing range check in the best case.
Initialize the structure before handing it to the drivers to cure that.

rv_reactor has a reference counter to ensure it is not removed while
monitors are still using it.
However, this is futile, as __exit functions are not expected to fail and
will proceed normally despite rv_unregister_reactor() returning an error.
At the moment, reactors do not support being built as modules, therefore
they are never removed and the reference counters are not necessary.
If we support building RV reactors as modules in the future, kernel
module's centralized facilities such as try_module_get(), module_put() or
MODULE_SOFTDEP should be used instead of this custom implementation.
Remove this reference counter.

The trace event filter bootup self test tests a bunch of filter logic
against the ftrace_test_filter event, but does not actually call the

not used. To quiet the warning call the trace event under an if statement

A warning is raised when __request_region() detects a conflict with a
resource whose resource.desc is IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY.
But this warning is only valid for iomem_resources.
The hmem device resource uses resource.desc as the numa node id, which can
cause spurious warnings.
This warning appeared on a machine with multiple cxl memory expanders.
One of the NUMA node id is 6, which is the same as the value of
IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY.
In this environment it was just a spurious warning, but when I saw the
warning I suspected a real problem so it's better to fix it.
This change fixes this by restricting the warning to only iomem_resource.
This also adds a missing new line to the warning message.

GCC appears to have kind of fragile inlining heuristics, in the
sense that it can change whether or not it inlines something based on
optimizations. It looks like the kcov instrumentation being added (or in
this case, removed) from a function changes the optimization results,
and some functions marked "inline" are _not_ inlined. In that case,
we end up with __init code calling a function not marked __init, and we
get the build warnings I'm trying to eliminate in the coming patch that
adds __no_sanitize_coverage to __init functions:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: xbc_exit+0x8 (section: .text.unlikely) -> _xbc_exit (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: real_mode_size_needed+0x15 (section: .text.unlikely) -> real_mode_blob_end (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: __set_percpu_decrypted+0x16 (section: .text.unlikely) -> early_set_memory_decrypted (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: memblock_alloc_from+0x26 (section: .text.unlikely) -> memblock_alloc_try_nid (section: .init.text)

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: efi_config_table_is_usable+0x16 (section: .text.unlikely) -> xen_efi_config_table_is_usable (section: .init.text)
This problem is somewhat fragile (though using either __always_inline
or __init will deterministically solve it), but we've tripped over
this before with GCC and the solution has usually been to just use
__always_inline and move on.
For x86 this means forcing several functions to be inline with
__always_inline.

The current behaviour of rvgen when running with the -a option is to
append the necessary lines at the end of the configuration for Kconfig,
Makefile and tracepoints.
This is not always the desired behaviour in case of nested monitors:
while tracepoints are not affected by nesting and the Makefile's only
requirement is that the parent monitor is built before its children, in
the Kconfig it is better to have children defined right after their
parent, otherwise the result has wrong indentation:
[*] foo_parent monitor
[*] foo_child1 monitor
[*] foo_child2 monitor
[*] bar_parent monitor
[*] bar_child1 monitor
[*] bar_child2 monitor
[*] foo_child3 monitor
[*] foo_child4 monitor
Adapt rvgen to look for a different marker for nested monitors in the
Kconfig file and append the line right after the last sibling, instead
of the last monitor.
Also add the marker when creating a new parent monitor.

eprobes are dynamic events that can read other events using their fields
to create new events. Currently it doesn't work with arrays. When the new
event field is attached to the old event field, it looks at the size of
the field to determine what type of field the new field should be. For 1
byte fields it's a char, for 2 bytes, it's a short and for 4 bytes it's an
integer. For all other sizes it just defaults to "long". This also reads
the contents of the field for such cases.
For arrays that are bigger than the size of long, return the value of the
address of the content itself. This will allow eprobes to read other
values in the array of the old event.
This is useful when raw_syscalls is enabled but the syscall events are
not. The syscall events are created from the raw_syscalls as they have an
array of "args" that holds the 6 long words passed to the syscall entry
point. To read the value of "filename" from sys_openat, the eprobe could
attach to the raw_syscall and read the second value.
It can then even be passed to a synthetic event and converted back to
another eprobe to get the value of "filename" after it has been read by
the kernel during the system call:
[
Create an eprobe called "sys" and attach it to sys_enter.
Read the id of the system call and the second argument
]
# echo 'e:sys raw_syscalls.sys_enter nr=$id:u32 arg2=+8($args):u64' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
[
Create a synthetic event "path" that will hold the address of the
sys_openat filename. This is on a 64bit machine, so make it 64 bits
]
# echo 's:path u64 file;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
[
Add a histogram to the eprobe/sys which tiggers if the "nr" field is
257 (sys_openat), and save the filename in the "file" variable.
]
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:file=arg2 if nr == 257' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/sys/trigger
[
Attach a histogram to sys_exit event that triggers the "path" synthetic
event and records the "filename" that was passed from the sys eprobe.
]
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:f=$file:onmatch(eprobes.sys).trace(path,$f)' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_exit/trigger
[
Create another eprobe that dereferences the "file" field as a user
space string and displays it.
]
# echo 'e:open synthetic.path file=+0($file):ustring' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/open/enable

The following BPF program, simplified from a syzkaller repro, causes a
kernel warning:
r0 = *(u8 *)(r1 + 169);
exit;
With pointer field sk being at offset 168 in __sk_buff. This access is
detected as a narrower read in bpf_skb_is_valid_access because it
doesn't match offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk). It is therefore allowed
and later proceeds to bpf_convert_ctx_access. Note that for the
"is_narrower_load" case in the convert_ctx_accesses(), the insn->off
is aligned, so the cnt may not be 0 because it matches the
offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk) in the bpf_convert_ctx_access. However,
the target_size stays 0 and the verifier errors with a kernel warning:
verifier bug: error during ctx access conversion(1)
This patch fixes that to return a proper "invalid bpf_context access
off=X size=Y" error on the load instruction.
The same issue affects multiple other fields in context structures that
allow narrow access. Some other non-affected fields (for sk_msg,
sk_lookup, and sockopt) were also changed to use bpf_ctx_range_ptr for
consistency.
Note this syzkaller crash was reported in the "Closes" link below, which
used to be about a different bug, fixed in
commit fce7bd8e38 ("bpf/verifier: Handle BPF_LOAD_ACQ instructions
in insn_def_regno()"). Because syzbot somehow confused the two bugs,
the new crash and repro didn't get reported to the mailing list.

The ipi tracepoints are mostly generic, but the tracepoints ipi_raise,
ipi_entry and ipi_exit are only used by arm and arm64. This means these
trace events are wasting memory in all the other architectures that do not
use them.
Add CONFIG_HAVE_EXTRA_IPI_TRACEPOINTS and have arm and arm64 select it to
enable these trace events. The config makes it easy if other architectures
decide to trace these as well.

In January 2015, tracefs was created to allow access to the tracing
infrastructure without needing to compile in debugfs. When tracefs is
configured, the directory /sys/kernel/tracing will exist and tooling is
expected to use that path to access the tracing infrastructure.
To allow backward compatibility, when debugfs is mounted, it would
automount tracefs in its "tracing" directory so that tooling that had hard
coded /sys/kernel/debug/tracing would still work.
It has been over 10 years since the new interface was introduced, and all
tooling should now be using it. Start the process of deprecating the old
path so that it doesn't need to be maintained anymore.
A new config is added to allow distributions to disable automounting of
tracefs on debugfs.
If /sys/kernel/debug/tracing is accessed, a pr_warn() will trigger stating:
"NOTICE: Automounting of tracing to debugfs is deprecated and will be removed in 2030"
Expect to remove this feature in 5 years (2030).

Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

When soft disabling of trace events was first created, it needed to have a
way to know if a file had a user that was using it with soft disabled (for
triggers that need to enable or disable events from a context that can not
really enable or disable the event, it would set SOFT_DISABLED to state it
is disabled). The flag SOFT_MODE was used to denote that an event had a
user that would enable or disable it via the SOFT_DISABLED flag.
Commit 1cf4c0732d ("tracing: Modify soft-mode only if there's no other
referrer") fixed a bug where if two users were using the SOFT_DISABLED
flag the accounting would get messed up as the SOFT_MODE flag could only
handle one user. That commit added the sm_ref counter which kept track of
how many users were using the event in "soft mode". This made the
SOFT_MODE flag redundant as it should only be set if the sm_ref counter is
non zero.
Remove the SOFT_MODE flag and just use the sm_ref counter to know the
event is in soft mode or not. This makes the code a bit simpler.

ftrace has two flavors:
1) static: Where every function always calls the ftrace trampoline
2) dynamic: Where each function has nops that can be changed on demand to
jump to the ftrace trampoline when needed.
The static flavor has very high performance overhead and was only created
to make it easier for architectures to implement the dynamic flavor. An
architecture developer can first implement the static ftrace to make sure
the trampolines work before working on the more complicated dynamic aspect
of ftrace. Once the architecture can support dynamic ftrace, there's no
reason to continue to support the static flavor. In fact, the static
flavor tends to bitrot and bugs start to appear in them.
Remove the prompt to pick DYNAMIC_FTRACE and simply enable it if the
architecture supports it.

When the ring buffer was first introduced, reading the non-consuming
"trace" file required disabling the writing of the ring buffer. To make
sure the writing was fully disabled before iterating the buffer with a
non-consuming read, it would set the disable flag of the buffer and then
call an RCU synchronization to make sure all the buffers were
synchronized.
The function ring_buffer_read_start() originally would initialize the
iterator and call an RCU synchronization, but this was for each individual
per CPU buffer where this would get called many times on a machine with
many CPUs before the trace file could be read. The commit 72c9ddfd4c
("ring-buffer: Make non-consuming read less expensive with lots of cpus.")
separated ring_buffer_read_start into ring_buffer_read_prepare(),
ring_buffer_read_sync() and then ring_buffer_read_start() to allow each of
the per CPU buffers to be prepared, call the read_buffer_read_sync() once,
and then the ring_buffer_read_start() for each of the CPUs which made
things much faster.
The commit 1039221cc2 ("ring-buffer: Do not disable recording when there
is an iterator") removed the requirement of disabling the recording of the
ring buffer in order to iterate it, but it did not remove the
synchronization that was happening that was required to wait for all the
buffers to have no more writers. It's now OK for the buffers to have
writers and no synchronization is needed.
Remove the synchronization and put back the interface for the ring buffer
iterator back before commit 72c9ddfd4c was applied.

Yicon reported and Liangyan debugged a live lock in handle_edge_irq()
related to interrupt migration.
If the interrupt affinity is moved to a new target CPU and the interrupt is
currently handled on the previous target CPU for edge type interrupts the
handler might get stuck on the previous target:
CPU 0 (previous target) CPU 1 (new target)
handle_edge_irq()
repeat:
handle_event() handle_edge_irq()
if (INPROGESS) {
set(PENDING);
mask();
return;
}
if (PENDING) {
clear(PENDING);
unmask();
goto repeat;
}
The migration in software never completes and CPU0 continues to handle the
pending events forever. This happens when the device raises interrupts with
a high rate and always before handle_event() completes and before the CPU0
handler can clear INPROGRESS so that CPU1 sets the PENDING flag over and
over. This has been observed in virtual machines.
Prevent this by checking whether the CPU which observes the INPROGRESS flag
is the new affinity target. If that's the case, do not set the PENDING flag
and wait for the INPROGRESS flag to be cleared instead, so that the new
interrupt is handled on the new target CPU and the previous CPU is released
from the action.
This is restricted to the edge type handler and only utilized on systems,
which use single CPU targets for interrupt affinity.

The synchronization of CPU offlining with GP initialization is confusing
to put it mildly (rightfully so as the issue it deals with is complex).
Recent discussions brought up a question -- what prevents the
rcu_implicit_dyntick_qs() from warning about QS reports for offline

QS reporting for now-offline CPUs should only happen from:
- gp_init()
- rcutree_cpu_report_dead()
Add some documentation on this and refer to it from comments in the code
explaining how QS reporting is not missed when these functions are
concurrently running.

All architectures have an interruptible RCU extended quiescent state
(EQS) as part of their idle sequences, where interrupts can occur
without RCU watching. Entry code must account for this and wake RCU as
necessary; the common entry code deals with this in irqentry_enter() by
treating any interrupt from an idle thread as potentially having
occurred within an EQS and waking RCU for the duration of the interrupt
via rcu_irq_enter() .. rcu_irq_exit().
Some architectures may have other interruptible EQSs which require
similar treatment. For example, on s390 it is necessary to enable
interrupts around guest entry in the middle of a period where core KVM
code has entered an EQS.
So that architectures can wake RCU in these cases, this patch adds a
new arch_in_rcu_eqs() hook to the common entry code which is checked in
addition to the existing is_idle_thread() check, with RCU woken if
either returns true. A default implementation is provided which always
returns false, which suffices for most architectures.
As no architectures currently implement arch_in_rcu_eqs(), there should
be no functional change as a result of this patch alone. A subsequent
patch will add an s390 implementation to fix a latent bug with missing
RCU wakeups.

FORTIFY_SOURCE was added to the stack tracer where it compares the
entry->caller array to having entry->size elements.
timerlat has the following:
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
entry->size = size;
Which triggers FORTIFY_SOURCE as the caller is populated before the
entry->size is initialized.
Swap the order to satisfy FORTIFY_SOURCE logic.
- Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace events in modules
Trace events being added to the ftrace_events array are protected by
the trace_event_sem semaphore. But when loading modules that have
trace events, the addition of the events are not protected by the
semaphore and loading two modules that have events at the same time
can corrupt the list.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held(trace_event_sem) to
_trace_add_event_dirs() to confirm its held when iterating the list.

- Fix timerlat with use of FORTIFY_SOURCE
FORTIFY_SOURCE was added to the stack tracer where it compares the
entry->caller array to having entry->size elements.
timerlat has the following:
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
entry->size = size;
Which triggers FORTIFY_SOURCE as the caller is populated before the
entry->size is initialized.
Swap the order to satisfy FORTIFY_SOURCE logic.
- Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace events in modules
Trace events being added to the ftrace_events array are protected by
the trace_event_sem semaphore. But when loading modules that have
trace events, the addition of the events are not protected by the
semaphore and loading two modules that have events at the same time
can corrupt the list.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held(trace_event_sem) to
_trace_add_event_dirs() to confirm it is held when iterating the
list.

counter nr_uninterruptible to an unsigned int. Due to the fact that the
counters are not updated on migration of a uninterruptble task to a
different CPU, these counters can exceed INT_MAX. The counter is cast to
long in the load average calculation, which means that the cast expands
into negative space resulting in bogus load average values. Convert it back
to unsigned long to fix this.

Pull scheduler fix from Thomas Gleixner:
"A single fix for the scheduler.
A recent commit changed the runqueue counter nr_uninterruptible to an
unsigned int. Due to the fact that the counters are not updated on
migration of a uninterruptble task to a different CPU, these counters
can exceed INT_MAX.
The counter is cast to long in the load average calculation, which
means that the cast expands into negative space resulting in bogus
load average values.
Convert it back to unsigned long to fix this.

sched: Change nr_uninterruptible type to unsigned long
Inspired by mutex blocker tracking[1], and having already extended it to
semaphores, let's now add support for reader-writer semaphores (rwsems).
The approach is simple: when a task enters TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE while
waiting for an rwsem, we just call hung_task_set_blocker(). The hung task
detector can then query the rwsem's owner to identify the lock holder.
Tracking works reliably for writers, as there can only be a single writer
holding the lock, and its task struct is stored in the owner field.
The main challenge lies with readers. The owner field points to only one
of many concurrent readers, so we might lose track of the blocker if that
specific reader unlocks, even while others remain. This is not a
significant issue, however. In practice, long-lasting lock contention is
almost always caused by a writer. Therefore, reliably tracking the writer
is the primary goal of this patch series ;)
With this change, the hung task detector can now show blocker task's info

This patch (of 3):
In preparation for extending blocker tracking to support rwsems, make the
rwsem_owner() and is_rwsem_reader_owned() helpers globally available for
determining if the blocker is a writer or one of the readers.
Additionally, a stale owner pointer in a reader-owned rwsem can lead to
false positives in blocker tracking when CONFIG_DETECT_HUNG_TASK_BLOCKER
is enabled. To mitigate this, clear the owner field on the reader unlock
path, similar to what CONFIG_DEBUG_RWSEMS does. A NULL owner is better
than a stale one for diagnostics.

'panic_print' was introduced to help debugging kernel panic by dumping
different kinds of system information like tasks' call stack, memory,
ftrace buffer, etc. Actually this function could also be used to help
debugging other cases like task-hung, soft/hard lockup, etc. where user
may need the snapshot of system info at that time.
Extract system info dump function related code from panic.c to separate
file sys_info.[ch], for wider usage by other kernel parts for debugging.
Also modify the macro names about singulars/plurals.

Patch series "generalize panic_print's dump function to be used by other
kernel parts", v3.
When working on kernel stability issues, panic, task-hung and
software/hardware lockup are frequently met. And to debug them, user may
need lots of system information at that time, like task call stacks, lock
info, memory info etc.
panic case already has panic_print_sys_info() for this purpose, and has a
'panic_print' bitmask to control what kinds of information is needed,
which is also helpful to debug other task-hung and lockup cases.
So this patchset extracts the function out to a new file 'lib/sys_info.c',
and makes it available for other cases which also need to dump system info
for debugging.
Also as suggested by Petr Mladek, add 'panic_sys_info=' interface to take
human readable string like "tasks,mem,locks,timers,ftrace,....", and
eventually obsolete the current 'panic_print' bitmap interface.
In RFC and V1 version, hung_task and SW/HW watchdog modules are enabled
with the new sys_info dump interface. In v2, they are kept out for better
review of current change, and will be posted later.
Locally these have been used in our bug chasing for stability issues and
was proven helpful.
Many thanks to Petr Mladek for great suggestions on both the code and
architectures!
This patch (of 5):
Currently the panic_print_sys_info() was called twice with different
parameters to handle console replay case, which is kind of confusing.
Add panic_console_replay() explicitly and rename
'PANIC_PRINT_ALL_PRINTK_MSG' to 'PANIC_CONSOLE_REPLAY', to make the code
straightforward. The related kernel document is also updated.

When re-using the CMA area for kdump there is a risk of pending DMA into
pinned user pages in the CMA area.
Pages residing in CMA areas can usually not get long-term pinned and are
instead migrated away from the CMA area, so long-term pinning is typically
not a concern. (BUGs in the kernel might still lead to long-term pinning
of such pages if everything goes wrong.)
Pages pinned without FOLL_LONGTERM remain in the CMA and may possibly be
the source or destination of a pending DMA transfer.
Although there is no clear specification how long a page may be pinned
without FOLL_LONGTERM, pinning without the flag shows an intent of the
caller to only use the memory for short-lived DMA transfers, not a
transfer initiated by a device asynchronously at a random time in the
future.
Add a delay of CMA_DMA_TIMEOUT_SEC seconds before starting the kdump
kernel, giving such short-lived DMA transfers time to finish before the
CMA memory is re-used by the kdump kernel.
Set CMA_DMA_TIMEOUT_SEC to 10 seconds - chosen arbitrarily as both a huge
margin for a DMA transfer, yet not increasing the kdump time too
significantly.

Patch series "kdump: crashkernel reservation from CMA", v5.
This series implements a way to reserve additional crash kernel memory
using CMA.
Currently, all the memory for the crash kernel is not usable by the 1st
(production) kernel. It is also unmapped so that it can't be corrupted by
the fault that will eventually trigger the crash. This makes sense for
the memory actually used by the kexec-loaded crash kernel image and initrd
and the data prepared during the load (vmcoreinfo, ...). However, the
reserved space needs to be much larger than that to provide enough
run-time memory for the crash kernel and the kdump userspace. Estimating
the amount of memory to reserve is difficult. Being too careful makes
kdump likely to end in OOM, being too generous takes even more memory from
the production system. Also, the reservation only allows reserving a
single contiguous block (or two with the "low" suffix). I've seen systems
where this fails because the physical memory is fragmented.
By reserving additional crashkernel memory from CMA, the main crashkernel
reservation can be just large enough to fit the kernel and initrd image,
minimizing the memory taken away from the production system. Most of the
run-time memory for the crash kernel will be memory previously available
to userspace in the production system. As this memory is no longer
wasted, the reservation can be done with a generous margin, making kdump
more reliable. Kernel memory that we need to preserve for dumping is
normally not allocated from CMA, unless it is explicitly allocated as
movable. Currently this is only the case for memory ballooning and zswap.
Such movable memory will be missing from the vmcore. User data is
typically not dumped by makedumpfile. When dumping of user data is
intended this new CMA reservation cannot be used.
There are five patches in this series:
The first adds a new ",cma" suffix to the recenly introduced generic
crashkernel parsing code. parse_crashkernel() takes one more argument to
store the cma reservation size.
The second patch implements reserve_crashkernel_cma() which performs the
reservation. If the requested size is not available in a single range,
multiple smaller ranges will be reserved.
The third patch updates Documentation/, explicitly mentioning the
potential DMA corruption of the CMA-reserved memory.
The fourth patch adds a short delay before booting the kdump kernel,
allowing pending DMA transfers to finish.
The fifth patch enables the functionality for x86 as a proof of
concept. There are just three things every arch needs to do:
- call reserve_crashkernel_cma()
- include the CMA-reserved ranges in the physical memory map
- exclude the CMA-reserved ranges from the memory available
through /proc/vmcore by excluding them from the vmcoreinfo
PT_LOAD ranges.
Adding other architectures is easy and I can do that as soon as this
series is merged.
With this series applied, specifying
crashkernel=100M craskhernel=1G,cma
on the command line will make a standard crashkernel reservation
of 100M, where kexec will load the kernel and initrd.
An additional 1G will be reserved from CMA, still usable by the production
system. The crash kernel will have 1.1G memory available. The 100M can
be reliably predicted based on the size of the kernel and initrd.
The new cma suffix is completely optional. When no
crashkernel=size,cma is specified, everything works as before.
This patch (of 5):
Add a new cma_size parameter to parse_crashkernel(). When not NULL, call
__parse_crashkernel to parse the CMA reservation size from
"crashkernel=size,cma" and store it in cma_size.
Set cma_size to NULL in all calls to parse_crashkernel().

When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It
may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum
names with their values.
If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the
ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is
modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel.
The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while
it adds the new event.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in
__trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

/proc/cgroups lists only v1 controllers by default, however, this is
only enforced since the commit af000ce852 ("cgroup: Do not report
unavailable v1 controllers in /proc/cgroups") and there is software in
the wild that uses content of /proc/cgroups to decide on availability of
v2 (sic) controllers.
Add a boottime param that can bring back the previous behavior for
setups where the check in the software cannot be changed and it causes
e.g. unintended OOMs.
Also, this patch takes out cgrp_v1_visible from cgroup1_subsys_absent()
guard since it's only important to check which hierarchy (v1 vs v2) the
subsys is attached to. This has no effect on the printed message but
the code is cleaner since cgrp_v1_visible is really about mounted
hierarchies, not the content of /proc/cgroups.

__timerlat_dump_stack() constructs the ftrace stack entry like this:
struct stack_entry *entry;
...
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
entry->size = fstack->nr_entries;
Since commit e7186af7fb ("tracing: Add back FORTIFY_SOURCE logic to
kernel_stack event structure"), struct stack_entry marks its caller
field with __counted_by(size). At the time of the memcpy, entry->size
contains garbage from the ringbuffer, which under some circumstances is
zero, triggering a kernel panic by buffer overflow.
Populate the size field before the memcpy so that the out-of-bounds
check knows the correct size. This is analogous to
__ftrace_trace_stack().

We observed a regression in our customer’s environment after enabling
CONFIG_LAZY_RCU. In the Android Update Engine scenario, where ioctl() is
used heavily, we found that callbacks queued via call_rcu_hurry (such as
percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu) can sometimes be delayed by up to 5
seconds before execution. This occurs because the new grace period does
not start immediately after the previous one completes.
The root cause is that the wake_nocb_gp_defer() function now checks
"rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup" instead of "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup". On CPUs
that are not rcuog, "rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup" may always be
RCU_NOCB_WAKE_NOT. This can cause "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup" to be
downgraded and the "rdp_gp->nocb_timer" to be postponed by up to 10
seconds, delaying the execution of hurry RCU callbacks.
The trace log of one scenario we encountered is as follow:
// previous GP ends at this point
rcu_preempt [000] d..1. 137.240210: rcu_grace_period: rcu_preempt 8369 end

This patch changes the condition to check "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup" in
the lazy path. This prevents an already scheduled "rdp_gp->nocb_timer"
from being postponed and avoids overwriting "rdp_gp->nocb_defer_wakeup"
when it is not RCU_NOCB_WAKE_NOT.

Recently while revising RCU's cpu online checks, there was some discussion
around how IPIs synchronize with hotplug.
Add comments explaining how preemption disable creates mutual exclusion with
CPU hotplug's stop_machine mechanism. The key insight is that stop_machine()
atomically updates CPU masks and flushes IPIs with interrupts disabled, and
cannot proceed while any CPU (including the IPI sender) has preemption
disabled.

When SCX_OPS_ENQ_MIGRATION_DISABLED is enabled, migration-disabled tasks
are also routed to ops.enqueue(). A scheduler may attempt to dispatch
such tasks directly to an idle CPU using the default idle selection
policy via scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() or scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl().
This scenario must be properly handled by the built-in idle policy to
avoid returning an idle CPU where the target task isn't allowed to run.
Otherwise, it can lead to errors such as:
EXIT: runtime error (SCX_DSQ_LOCAL[_ON] cannot move migration disabled Chrome_ChildIOT[291646] from CPU 3 to 14)
Prevent this by explicitly handling migration-disabled tasks in the
built-in idle selection logic, maintaining their CPU affinity.

This reverts commit cff5f49d43.
Commit cff5f49d43 ("cgroup_freezer: cgroup_freezing: Check if not
frozen") modified the cgroup_freezing() logic to verify that the FROZEN
flag is not set, affecting the return value of the freezing() function,
in order to address a warning in __thaw_task.
A race condition exists that may allow tasks to escape being frozen. The
following scenario demonstrates this issue:
CPU 0 (get_signal path) CPU 1 (freezer.state reader)
try_to_freeze read freezer.state
__refrigerator freezer_read
update_if_frozen
WRITE_ONCE(current->__state, TASK_FROZEN);
...
/* Task is now marked frozen */
/* frozen(task) == true */
/* Assuming other tasks are frozen */
freezer->state |= CGROUP_FROZEN;
/* freezing(current) returns false */
/* because cgroup is frozen (not freezing) */
break out
__set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);
/* Bug: Task resumes running when it should remain frozen */
The existing !frozen(p) check in __thaw_task makes the
WARN_ON_ONCE(freezing(p)) warning redundant. Removing this warning enables
reverting the commit cff5f49d43 ("cgroup_freezer: cgroup_freezing: Check

inserting the node to the lockless list or the one removing the node

These are expected race and a simple READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE resolves these
reports. However let's add comments to explain the race and the need for
memory barriers if stronger guarantees are needed.
More specifically the rstat updater and the flusher can race and cause a
scenario where the stats updater skips adding the css to the lockless
list but the flusher might not see those updates done by the skipped
updater. This is benign race and the subsequent flusher will flush those
stats and at the moment there aren't any rstat users which are not fine
with this kind of race. However some future user might want more
stricter guarantee, so let's add appropriate comments to ease the job of
future users.

Avoid invoking update_locked_rq() when the runqueue (rq) pointer is NULL
in the SCX_CALL_OP and SCX_CALL_OP_RET macros.
Previously, calling update_locked_rq(NULL) with preemption enabled could
trigger the following warning:
BUG: using __this_cpu_write() in preemptible [00000000]
This happens because __this_cpu_write() is unsafe to use in preemptible
context.
rq is NULL when an ops invoked from an unlocked context. In such cases, we
don't need to store any rq, since the value should already be NULL
(unlocked). Ensure that update_locked_rq() is only called when rq is
non-NULL, preventing calling __this_cpu_write() on preemptible context.

Currently, SRCU-fast grace periods use synchronize_rcu() to provide the
needed ordering with readers, even given an expedited SRCU-fast grace
period, which isn't all that expedited. This commit therefore instead
uses synchronize_rcu_expedited() if there is an expedited SRCU-fast
grace period in flight.
Of course, given an non-expedited SRCU-fast grace period blocked in
synchronize_rcu(), a later request for an expedited SRCU-fast grace
period will wait for that synchronize_rcu() to return before switching
to use of synchronize_rcu_expedited(). If this turns out to be a real
problem for a production workload, we can increase the complexity (but
likely also degrade the energy efficiency) to speed things up further.

Both SRCU-lite and SRCU-fast provide faster readers by dropping the

During rcu_read_unlock_special(), if this happens during irq_exit(), we
can lockup if an IPI is issued. This is because the IPI itself triggers
the irq_exit() path causing a recursive lock up.
This is precisely what Xiongfeng found when invoking a BPF program on
the trace_tick_stop() tracepoint As shown in the trace below. Fix by
managing the irq_work state correctly.
irq_exit()
__irq_exit_rcu()
/* in_hardirq() returns false after this */
preempt_count_sub(HARDIRQ_OFFSET)
tick_irq_exit()
tick_nohz_irq_exit()
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()

bpf_trace_run2()
rcu_read_unlock_special()
/* will send a IPI to itself */
irq_work_queue_on(&rdp->defer_qs_iw, rdp->cpu);
A simple reproducer can also be obtained by doing the following in
tick_irq_exit(). It will hang on boot without the patch:
static inline void tick_irq_exit(void)
{

[neeraj: Apply Frederic's suggested fix for PREEMPT_RT]
Signed-off-by: Neeraj Upadhyay (AMD) <neeraj.upadhyay@kernel.org>
On kernels built with CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=y, when rcu_read_unlock() is
invoked within an interrupts-disabled region of code [1], it will invoke
rcu_read_unlock_special(), which uses an irq-work handler to force the
system to notice when the RCU read-side critical section actually ends.
That end won't happen until interrupts are enabled at the soonest.
In some kernels, such as those booted with rcutree.use_softirq=y, the
irq-work handler is used unconditionally.
The per-CPU rcu_data structure's ->defer_qs_iw_pending field is
updated by the irq-work handler and is both read and updated by
rcu_read_unlock_special(). This resulted in the following KCSAN splat:

The problem is that irq-work handlers run with interrupts enabled, which
means that rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() could be interrupted,
and that interrupt handler might contain an RCU read-side critical
section, which might invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(). In the strict
KCSAN mode of operation used by RCU, this constitutes a data race on
the ->defer_qs_iw_pending field.
This commit therefore disables interrupts across the portion of the
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() that updates the ->defer_qs_iw_pending
field. This suffices because this handler is not a fast path.

The recently introduced support for freezing filesystems during system
suspend included calls to filesystems_freeze() in both suspend_prepare()
and enter_state(), as well as calls to filesystems_thaw() in both
suspend_finish() and the Unlock path in enter_state(). These are
redundant.
Moreover, calling filesystems_freeze() twice, from both suspend_prepare()
and enter_state(), leads to a black screen and makes the system unable
to resume in some cases.
Address this as follows:
- filesystems_freeze() is already called in suspend_prepare(), which
is the proper and consistent place to handle pre-suspend operations.
The second call in enter_state() is unnecessary and so remove it.
- filesystems_thaw() is invoked in suspend_finish(), which covers
successful suspend/resume paths. In the failure case, add a call
to filesystems_thaw() only when needed, avoiding the duplicate call
in the general Unlock path.
This change simplifies the suspend code and avoids repeated freeze/thaw
calls, while preserving correct ordering and behavior.

lockdep_unregister_key() is called from critical code paths, including
sections where rtnl_lock() is held. For example, when replacing a qdisc
in a network device, network egress traffic is disabled while
__qdisc_destroy() is called for every network queue.
If lockdep is enabled, __qdisc_destroy() calls lockdep_unregister_key(),
which gets blocked waiting for synchronize_rcu() to complete.
For example, a simple tc command to replace a qdisc could take 13
seconds:
# time /usr/sbin/tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root handle 0x1: mq
real 0m13.195s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m2.746s
During this time, network egress is completely frozen while waiting for
RCU synchronization.
Use synchronize_rcu_expedited() instead to minimize the impact on
critical operations like network connectivity changes.
This improves 10x the function call to tc, when replacing the qdisc for
a network card.
# time /usr/sbin/tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root handle 0x1: mq
real 0m1.789s
user 0m0.000s

Start to flesh out the real find_proxy_task() implementation,
but avoid the migration cases for now, in those cases just
deactivate the donor task and pick again.
To ensure the donor task or other blocked tasks in the chain
aren't migrated away while we're running the proxy, also tweak
the fair class logic to avoid migrating donor or mutex blocked
tasks.

Proxy execution forms atomic pairs of tasks: The waiting donor
task (scheduling context) and a proxy (execution context). The
donor task, along with the rest of the blocked chain, follows
the proxy wrt CPU placement.
They can be the same task, in which case push/pull doesn't need any
modification. When they are different, however,
FIFO1 & FIFO42:
,-> RT42
| | blocked-on
| v
blocked_donor | mutex
| | owner
| v
`-- RT1
RT1
RT42
CPU0 CPU1
^ ^
| |
overloaded !overloaded
rq prio = 42 rq prio = 0
RT1 is eligible to be pushed to CPU1, but should that happen it will
"carry" RT42 along. Clearly here neither RT1 nor RT42 must be seen as
push/pullable.
Unfortunately, only the donor task is usually dequeued from the rq,
and the proxy'ed execution context (rq->curr) remains on the rq.
This can cause RT1 to be selected for migration from logic like the
rt pushable_list.
Thus, adda a dequeue/enqueue cycle on the proxy task before __schedule
returns, which allows the sched class logic to avoid adding the now
current task to the pushable_list.
Furthermore, tasks becoming blocked on a mutex don't need an explicit
dequeue/enqueue cycle to be made (push/pull)able: they have to be running
to block on a mutex, thus they will eventually hit put_prev_task().

Add a find_proxy_task() function which doesn't do much.
When we select a blocked task to run, we will just deactivate it
and pick again. The exception being if it has become unblocked
after find_proxy_task() was called.
This allows us to validate keeping blocked tasks on the runqueue
and later deactivating them is working ok, stressing the failure
cases for when a proxy isn't found.

Without proxy-exec, we normally charge the "current" task for
both its vruntime as well as its sum_exec_runtime.
With proxy, however, we have two "current" contexts: the
scheduler context and the execution context. We want to charge
the execution context rq->curr (ie: proxy/lock holder) execution
time to its sum_exec_runtime (so it's clear to userland the
rq->curr task *is* running), as well as its thread group.
However the rest of the time accounting (such a vruntime and
cgroup accounting), we charge against the scheduler context
(rq->donor) task, because it is from that task that the time
is being "donated".
If the donor and curr tasks are the same, then it's the same as
without proxy.

This all will be used for tracking blocked-task/mutex chains

For serialization, blocked-on is only set by the task itself

Support for overlapping domains added in commit e3589f6c81 ("sched:
Allow for overlapping sched_domain spans") also allowed forcefully
setting SD_OVERLAP for !NUMA domains via FORCE_SD_OVERLAP sched_feat().
Since NUMA domains had to be presumed overlapping to ensure correct
behavior, "sched_domain_topology_level::flags" was introduced. NUMA
domains added the SDTL_OVERLAP flag would ensure SD_OVERLAP was always
added during build_sched_domains() for these domains, even when
FORCE_SD_OVERLAP was off.
Condition for adding the SD_OVERLAP flag at the aforementioned commit
was as follows:
if (tl->flags & SDTL_OVERLAP || sched_feat(FORCE_SD_OVERLAP))
sd->flags |= SD_OVERLAP;
The FORCE_SD_OVERLAP debug feature was removed in commit af85596c74
("sched/topology: Remove FORCE_SD_OVERLAP") which left the NUMA domains
as the exclusive users of SDTL_OVERLAP, SD_OVERLAP, and SD_NUMA flags.
Get rid of SDTL_OVERLAP and SD_OVERLAP as they have become redundant
and instead rely on SD_NUMA to detect the only overlapping domain
currently supported. Since SDTL_OVERLAP was the only user of
"tl->flags", get rid of "sched_domain_topology_level::flags" too.

The commit e6fe3f422b ("sched: Make multiple runqueue task counters
32-bit") changed nr_uninterruptible to an unsigned int. But the
nr_uninterruptible values for each of the CPU runqueues can grow to
large numbers, sometimes exceeding INT_MAX. This is valid, if, over
time, a large number of tasks are migrated off of one CPU after going
into an uninterruptible state. Only the sum of all nr_interruptible

Setting anon_name is done via madvise_set_anon_name() and behaves a lot of
like other madvise operations. However, apparently because madvise() has
lacked the 4th argument and prctl() not, the userspace entry point has
been implemented via prctl(PR_SET_VMA, ...) and handled first by
prctl_set_vma().
Currently prctl_set_vma() lives in kernel/sys.c but setting the
vma->anon_name is mm-specific code so extract it to a new
set_anon_vma_name() function under mm. mm/madvise.c seems to be the most
straightforward place as that's where madvise_set_anon_name() lives. Stop
declaring the latter in mm.h and instead declare set_anon_vma_name().

Syzbot reported a kernel warning due to a range invariant violation on
the following BPF program.
0: call bpf_get_netns_cookie
1: if r0 == 0 goto <exit>
2: if r0 & Oxffffffff goto <exit>
The issue is on the path where we fall through both jumps.
That path is unreachable at runtime: after insn 1, we know r0 != 0, but
with the sign extension on the jset, we would only fallthrough insn 2
if r0 == 0. Unfortunately, is_branch_taken() isn't currently able to
figure this out, so the verifier walks all branches. The verifier then
refines the register bounds using the second condition and we end
up with inconsistent bounds on this unreachable path:
1: if r0 == 0 goto <exit>
r0: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0xffffffffffffffff)
2: if r0 & 0xffffffff goto <exit>
r0 before reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0)
r0 after reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0] var_off=(0, 0)
Improving the range refinement for JSET to cover all cases is tricky. We
also don't expect many users to rely on JSET given LLVM doesn't generate
those instructions. So instead of improving the range refinement for
JSETs, Eduard suggested we forget the ranges whenever we're narrowing
tnums after a JSET. This patch implements that approach.

The global options come first in the mitigations= string.
Cross-thread mitigations can either remain enabled fully, including
potentially disabling SMT ('auto,nosmt'), remain enabled except for
disabling SMT ('auto'), or entirely disabled through the new
'no_cross_thread' attack vector option.
The default settings for these attack vectors are consistent with existing

The use of rcuref_t for reference counting introduces a performance bottleneck
when accessed concurrently by multiple threads during futex operations.
Replace rcuref_t with special crafted per-CPU reference counters. The
lifetime logic remains the same.
The newly allocate private hash starts in FR_PERCPU state. In this state, each
futex operation that requires the private hash uses a per-CPU counter (an
unsigned int) for incrementing or decrementing the reference count.
When the private hash is about to be replaced, the per-CPU counters are
migrated to a atomic_t counter mm_struct::futex_atomic.
The migration process:
- Waiting for one RCU grace period to ensure all users observe the
current private hash. This can be skipped if a grace period elapsed
since the private hash was assigned.
- futex_private_hash::state is set to FR_ATOMIC, forcing all users to
use mm_struct::futex_atomic for reference counting.
- After a RCU grace period, all users are guaranteed to be using the
atomic counter. The per-CPU counters can now be summed up and added to
the atomic_t counter. If the resulting count is zero, the hash can be
safely replaced. Otherwise, active users still hold a valid reference.
- Once the atomic reference count drops to zero, the next futex
operation will switch to the new private hash.
call_rcu_hurry() is used to speed up transition which otherwise might be
delay with RCU_LAZY. There is nothing wrong with using call_rcu(). The
side effects would be that on auto scaling the new hash is used later
and the SET_SLOTS prctl() will block longer.

When hibernate with data center dGPUs, huge number of VRAM data will be
moved to shmem during dev_pm_ops.prepare(). These shmem pages take a lot
of system memory so that there's no enough free memory for creating the
hibernation image. This will cause hibernation fail and abort.
After dev_pm_ops.prepare(), call shrink_all_memory() to force move shmem
pages to swap disk and reclaim the pages, so that there's enough system
memory for hibernation image and less pages needed to copy to the image.
This patch can only flush and free about half shmem pages. It will be
better to flush and free more pages, even all of shmem pages, so that
there're less pages to be copied to the hibernation image and the overall
hibernation time can be reduced.

__counted_by() has to point to a variable which defines the size
of the related array. The code must never access the array
beyond this limit.
struct prbtest_rbdata currently stores the length of the string.
And the code access the array beyond the limit when writing
or reading the trailing '\0'.
Store the size of the string, including the trailing '\0' if
we wanted to keep __counted_by().
Consistently use "_size" suffix when the trailing '\0' is counted.
Note that MAX_RBDATA_TEXT_SIZE was originally used to limit
the text length.
When touching the code, make sure that @text_size produced by
get_random_u32_inclusive() stays within the limits.

The KUnit test ignores prb_reserve() failures on purpose. It tries
to push the ringbuffer beyond limits.
Note that it is a know problem that writes might fail in this situation.
printk() tries to prevent this problem by:
+ allocating big enough data buffer, see log_buf_add_cpu().
+ allocating enough descriptors by using small enough average
record, see PRB_AVGBITS.
+ storing the record with disabled interrupts, see vprintk_store().
Also the amount of printk() messages is always somehow bound in
practice. And they are serialized when they are printed from
many CPUs on purpose, for example, when printing backtraces.

On some platforms, device dependencies are not properly represented by
device links, which can cause issues when asynchronous power management
is enabled. While it is possible to disable this via sysfs, doing so
at runtime can race with the first system suspend event.
This patch introduces a kernel command-line parameter, "pm_async", which
can be set to "off" to globally disable asynchronous suspend and resume
operations from early boot. It effectively provides a way to set the
initial value of the existing pm_async sysfs knob at boot time. This
offers a robust method to fall back to synchronous (sequential)
operation, which can stabilize platforms with problematic dependencies
and also serve as a useful debugging tool.
The default behavior remains unchanged (asynchronous enabled). To
disable it, boot the kernel with the "pm_async=off" parameter.

support would complicate this logic even further.
Therefore, clean up by changing the order so OR is no longer needed.

There's error path that could lead to inactive uprobe:
1) uprobe_register succeeds - updates instruction to int3 and
changes ref_ctr from 0 to 1
2) uprobe_unregister fails - int3 stays in place, but ref_ctr
is changed to 0 (it's not restored to 1 in the fail path)
uprobe is leaked
3) another uprobe_register comes and re-uses the leaked uprobe
and succeds - but int3 is already in place, so ref_ctr update
is skipped and it stays 0 - uprobe CAN NOT be triggered now
4) uprobe_unregister fails because ref_ctr value is unexpected
Fix this by reverting the updated ref_ctr value back to 1 in step 2),
which is the case when uprobe_unregister fails (int3 stays in place), but
we have already updated refctr.
The new scenario will go as follows:
1) uprobe_register succeeds - updates instruction to int3 and
changes ref_ctr from 0 to 1
2) uprobe_unregister fails - int3 stays in place and ref_ctr
is reverted to 1.. uprobe is leaked
3) another uprobe_register comes and re-uses the leaked uprobe
and succeds - but int3 is already in place, so ref_ctr update
is skipped and it stays 1 - uprobe CAN be triggered now
4) uprobe_unregister succeeds

It really doesn't matter if the user/admin knows what the last too big
value is. Record how many times this case is triggered would be helpful.
Solve the existing issue where relay_reset() doesn't restore the value.
Store the counter in the per-cpu buffer structure instead of the global
buffer structure. It also solves the racy condition which is likely to
happen when a few of per-cpu buffers encounter the too big data case and
then access the global field last_toobig without lock protection.
Remove the printk in relay_close() since kernel module can directly call
relay_stats() as they want.

When using relay mechanism, we often encounter the case where new data are
lost or old unconsumed data are overwritten because of slow reader.
Add 'full' field in per-cpu buffer structure to detect if the above case
is happening. Relay has two modes: 1) non-overwrite mode, 2) overwrite
mode. So buffer being full here respectively means: 1) relayfs doesn't
intend to accept new data and then simply drop them, or 2) relayfs is
going to start over again and overwrite old unread data with new data.
Note: this counter doesn't need any explicit lock to protect from being
modified by different threads for the better performance consideration.
Writers calling __relay_write/relay_write should consider how to use the
lock and ensure it performs under the lock protection, thus it's not
necessary to add a new small lock here.

Patch series "relayfs: misc changes", v5.
The series mostly focuses on the error counters which helps every user
debug their own kernel module.
This patch (of 5):
prev_padding represents the unused space of certain subbuffer. If the
content of a call of relay_write() exceeds the limit of the remainder of
this subbuffer, it will skip storing in the rest space and record the
start point as buf->prev_padding in relay_switch_subbuf(). Since the buf
is a per-cpu big buffer, the point of prev_padding as a global value for
the whole buffer instead of a single subbuffer (whose padding info is
stored in buf->padding[]) seems meaningless from the real use cases, so we
don't bother to record it any more.

The current allocation of VMAP stack memory is using (THREADINFO_GFP &
~__GFP_ACCOUNT) which is a complicated way of saying (GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_ZERO):
<linux/thread_info.h>:
define THREADINFO_GFP (GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT | __GFP_ZERO)
<linux/gfp_types.h>:
define GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT (GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ACCOUNT)
This is an unfortunate side-effect of independent changes blurring the
picture:
commit 19809c2da2 changed (THREADINFO_GFP |
__GFP_HIGHMEM) to just THREADINFO_GFP since highmem became implicit.
commit 9b6f7e163c then added stack caching
and rewrote the allocation to (THREADINFO_GFP & ~__GFP_ACCOUNT) as cached
stacks need to be accounted separately. However that code, when it
eventually accounts the memory does this:
ret = memcg_kmem_charge(vm->pages[i], GFP_KERNEL, 0)
so the memory is charged as a GFP_KERNEL allocation.
Define a unique GFP_VMAP_STACK to use
GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO and move the comment there.

Change the code so the naming is consistent:
struct vm_struct is always called vm_area
struct vm_stack is always called vm_stack
One change altering vfree(vm_stack) to vfree(vm_area->addr) may look like

Previously dax pages were skipped by the pagewalk code as pud_special() or
vm_normal_page{_pmd}() would be false for DAX pages. Now that dax pages
are refcounted normally that is no longer the case, so the pagewalk code
will start returning them.
Most callers already explicitly filter for DAX or zone device pages so
don't need updating. However some don't, so add checks to those callers.

This reverts commit ad6b26b6a0.
This commit introduces per-memcg/task NUMA balance statistics, but
unfortunately it introduced a NULL pointer exception due to the following
race condition: After a swap task candidate was chosen, its mm_struct
pointer was set to NULL due to task exit. Later, when performing the
actual task swapping, the p->mm caused the problem.
CPU0 CPU1
:
...
task_numa_migrate
task_numa_find_cpu
task_numa_compare
# a normal task p is chosen
env->best_task = p
# p exit:
exit_signals(p);
p->flags |= PF_EXITING
exit_mm
p->mm = NULL;
migrate_swap_stop
__migrate_swap_task((arg->src_task, arg->dst_cpu)
count_memcg_event_mm(p->mm, NUMA_TASK_SWAP)# p->mm is NULL
task_lock() should be held and the PF_EXITING flag needs to be checked to
prevent this from happening. After discussion, the conclusion was that
adding a lock is not worthwhile for some statistics calculations. Revert
the change and rely on the tracepoint for this purpose.

Rewind persistent ring buffer pages which have been read in the previous
boot. Those pages are highly possible to be lost before writing it to the
disk if the previous kernel crashed. In this case, the trace data is kept
on the persistent ring buffer, but it can not be read because its commit
size has been reset after read. This skips clearing the commit size of
each sub-buffer and recover it after reboot.
Note: If you read the previous boot data via trace_pipe, that is not
accessible in that time. But reboot without clearing (or reusing) the read
data, the read data is recovered again in the next boot.
Thus, when you read the previous boot data, clear it by `echo > trace`.

Chris reported that commit 5f6bd380c7 ("sched/rt: Remove default
bandwidth control") caused a significant dip in his favourite
benchmark of the day. Simply disabling dl_server cured things.
His workload hammers the 0->1, 1->0 transitions, and the
dl_server_{start,stop}() overhead kills it -- fairly obviously a bad
idea in hind sight and all that.
Change things around to only disable the dl_server when there has not
been a fair task around for a whole period. Since the default period
is 1 second, this ensures the benchmark never trips this, overhead
gone.

Dietmar reported that commit 3840cbe24c ("sched: psi: fix bogus
pressure spikes from aggregation race") caused a regression for him on
a high context switch rate benchmark (schbench) due to the now
repeating cpu_clock() calls.
In particular the problem is that get_recent_times() will extrapolate
the current state to 'now'. But if an update uses a timestamp from
before the start of the update, it is possible to get two reads
with inconsistent results. It is effectively back-dating an update.
(note that this all hard-relies on the clock being synchronized across
CPUs -- if this is not the case, all bets are off).
Combine this problem with the fact that there are per-group-per-cpu
seqcounts, the commit in question pushed the clock read into the group
iteration, causing tree-depth cpu_clock() calls. On architectures
where cpu_clock() has appreciable overhead, this hurts.
Instead move to a per-cpu seqcount, which allows us to have a single
clock read for all group updates, increasing internal consistency and
lowering update overhead. This comes at the cost of a longer update
side (proportional to the tree depth) which can cause the read side to
retry more often.

schbench (https://github.com/masoncl/schbench.git) is showing a
regression from previous production kernels that bisected down to:
sched/fair: Remove sysctl_sched_migration_cost condition (c5b0a7eefc)
The schbench command line was:
schbench -L -m 4 -M auto -t 256 -n 0 -r 0 -s 0
This creates 4 message threads pinned to CPUs 0-3, and 256x4 worker
threads spread across the rest of the CPUs. Neither the worker threads
or the message threads do any work, they just wake each other up and go
back to sleep as soon as possible.
The end result is the first 4 CPUs are pegged waking up those 1024
workers, and the rest of the CPUs are constantly banging in and out of
idle. If I take a v6.9 Linus kernel and revert that one commit,
performance goes from 3.4M RPS to 5.4M RPS.
schedstat shows there are ~100x more new idle balance operations, and
profiling shows the worker threads are spending ~20% of their CPU time
on new idle balance. schedstats also shows that almost all of these new
idle balance attemps are failing to find busy groups.
The fix used here is to crank up the cost of the newidle balance whenever it
fails. Since we don't want sd->max_newidle_lb_cost to grow out of
control, this also changes update_newidle_cost() to use
sysctl_sched_migration_cost as the upper limit on max_newidle_lb_cost.

Freeing of filters requires to wait for both an RCU grace period as well as
a RCU task trace wait period after they have been detached from their
lists. The trace task period can be quite large so the freeing of the
filters was moved to use the call_rcu*() routines. The problem with that is
that the callback functions of call_rcu*() is done from a soft irq and can
cause latencies if the callback takes a bit of time.
The filters are freed per event in a system and the syscalls system
contains an event per system call, which can be over 700 events. Freeing 700
filters in a bottom half is undesirable.
Instead, move the freeing to use queue_rcu_work() which is done in task
context.

The per-CPU data section is handled differently than the other sections.
The memory allocations requires a special __percpu pointer and then the
section is copied into the view of each CPU. Therefore the SHF_ALLOC
flag is removed to ensure move_module() skips it.
Later, relocations are applied and apply_relocations() skips sections
without SHF_ALLOC because they have not been copied. This also skips the
per-CPU data section.
The missing relocations result in a NULL pointer on x86-64 and very
small values on x86-32. This results in a crash because it is not
skipped like NULL pointer would and can't be dereferenced.
Such an assignment happens during static per-CPU lock initialisation
with lockdep enabled.
Allow relocation processing for the per-CPU section even if SHF_ALLOC is
missing.

error occurs.
The variable is initially set to 0 and is updated when a call to

reasons as well, in which case t remains set to 0 and no memory is freed.
Fix the problem by initializing t to MOD_MEM_NUM_TYPES. Additionally, make

having a signed integer as its underlying type.

there is a situation where the rdp's rcuop kthreads creation fails,

This will cause the subsequent re-offload operation of this offline

A CPU coming online checks for an ongoing grace period and reports
a quiescent state accordingly if needed. This special treatment that
shortcuts the expedited IPI finds its origin as an optimization purpose
on the following commit:
338b0f760e (rcu: Better hotplug handling for synchronize_sched_expedited()
The point is to avoid an IPI while waiting for a CPU to become online
or failing to become offline.
However this is pointless and even error prone for several reasons:
* If the CPU has been seen offline in the first round scanning offline
and idle CPUs, no IPI is even tried and the quiescent state is
reported on behalf of the CPU.
* This means that if the IPI fails, the CPU just became offline. So
it's unlikely to become online right away, unless the cpu hotplug
operation failed and rolled back, which is a rare event that can
wait a jiffy for a new IPI to be issued.
* But then the "optimization" applying on failing CPU hotplug down only
applies to !PREEMPT_RCU.
* This force reports a quiescent state even if ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp is not
set. As a result it can race with remote QS reports on the same rdp.
Fortunately it happens to be OK but an accident is waiting to happen.
For all those reasons, remove this optimization that doesn't look worthy
to keep around.

A full memory barrier in the RCU-PREEMPT task unblock path advertizes
to order the context switch (or rather the accesses prior to
rcu_read_unlock()) with the expedited grace period fastpath.
However the grace period can not complete without the rnp calling into
rcu_report_exp_rnp() with the node locked. This reports the quiescent
state in a fully ordered fashion against updater's accesses thanks to:
1) The READ-SIDE smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() barrier across nodes
locking while propagating QS up to the root.
2) The UPDATE-SIDE smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() barrier while holding the
the root rnp to wait/check for the GP completion.
3) The (perhaps redundant given step 1) and 2)) smp_mb() in rcu_seq_end()
before the grace period completes.
This makes the explicit barrier in this place superfluous. Therefore
remove it as it is confusing.

The combination of spinlock_t lock and seqcount_spinlock_t seq

Combine and switch to equivalent seqlock_t primitives. AFAICS,
that does end up with the same sequence of underlying operations in all

While we are at it, get_fs_pwd() is open-coded verbatim in
get_path_from_fd(); rather than applying conversion to it, replace with

IMO...
A bit of historical background - conversion of seqlock_t to
use of seqcount_spinlock_t happened several months after the same
had been done to struct fs_struct; switching fs_struct to seqlock_t
could've been done immediately after that, but it looks like nobody

the type of the loaded structure field based on the load offset.
For example, given the following types:

This commit updates the logic for processing PTR_TO_BTF_ID to instead

Besides, loops parameter is defined as long, while through the code is
used as int, which can cause truncation on 64-bit kernels and possible
zeroes where they shouldn't appear.
Since code uses result of multiplication as int anyway, it only makes sense
to replace loops with int. Multiplication overflow check is also added
due to possible multiplication between two very big numbers.

Currently the SHA-224 and SHA-256 library functions can be mixed
arbitrarily, even in ways that are incorrect, for example using
sha224_init() and sha256_final(). This is because they operate on the
same structure, sha256_state.
Introduce stronger typing, as I did for SHA-384 and SHA-512.
Also as I did for SHA-384 and SHA-512, use the names *_ctx instead of
*_state. The *_ctx names have the following small benefits:
- They're shorter.
- They avoid an ambiguity with the compression function state.
- They're consistent with the well-known OpenSSL API.
- Users usually name the variable 'sctx' anyway, which suggests that
*_ctx would be the more natural name for the actual struct.
Therefore: update the SHA-224 and SHA-256 APIs, implementation, and
calling code accordingly.
In the new structs, also strongly-type the compression function state.

In our testing with 6.12 based kernel on a big.LITTLE system, we were
seeing instances of RT tasks being blocked from running on the LITTLE
cpus for multiple seconds of time, apparently by the dl_server. This
far exceeds the default configured 50ms per second runtime.
This is due to the fair dl_server runtime calculation being scaled
for frequency & capacity of the cpu.
Consider the following case under a Big.LITTLE architecture:
Assume the runtime is: 50,000,000 ns, and Frequency/capacity
scale-invariance defined as below:
Frequency scale-invariance: 100
Capacity scale-invariance: 50
First by Frequency scale-invariance,
the runtime is scaled to 50,000,000 * 100 >> 10 = 4,882,812
Then by capacity scale-invariance,
it is further scaled to 4,882,812 * 50 >> 10 = 238,418.
So it will scaled to 238,418 ns.
This smaller "accounted runtime" value is what ends up being
subtracted against the fair-server's runtime for the current period.
Thus after 50ms of real time, we've only accounted ~238us against the
fair servers runtime. This 209:1 ratio in this example means that on
the smaller cpu the fair server is allowed to continue running,
blocking RT tasks, for over 10 seconds before it exhausts its supposed
50ms of runtime. And on other hardware configurations it can be even
worse.
For the fair deadline_server, to prevent realtime tasks from being
unexpectedly delayed, we really do want to use fixed time, and not
scaled time for smaller capacity/frequency cpus. So remove the scaling
from the fair server's accounting to fix this.

In preparation of figuring out the closest program that led to the
current point in the kernel, implement a function that scans through the
stack trace and finds out the closest BPF program when walking down the
stack trace.
Special care needs to be taken to skip over kernel and BPF subprog
frames. We basically scan until we find a BPF main prog frame. The
assumption is that if a program calls into us transitively, we'll
hit it along the way. If not, we end up returning NULL.
Contextually the function will be used in places where we know the
program may have called into us.
Due to reliance on arch_bpf_stack_walk(), this function only works on
x86 with CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC, arm64, and s390. Remove the warning from
arch_bpf_stack_walk as well since we call it outside bpf_throw()
context.

Add support for a stream API to the kernel and expose related kfuncs to
BPF programs. Two streams are exposed, BPF_STDOUT and BPF_STDERR. These
can be used for printing messages that can be consumed from user space,
thus it's similar in spirit to existing trace_pipe interface.
The kernel will use the BPF_STDERR stream to notify the program of any
errors encountered at runtime. BPF programs themselves may use both
streams for writing debug messages. BPF library-like code may use
BPF_STDERR to print warnings or errors on misuse at runtime.
The implementation of a stream is as follows. Everytime a message is
emitted from the kernel (directly, or through a BPF program), a record
is allocated by bump allocating from per-cpu region backed by a page
obtained using alloc_pages_nolock(). This ensures that we can allocate
memory from any context. The eventual plan is to discard this scheme in
favor of Alexei's kmalloc_nolock() [0].
This record is then locklessly inserted into a list (llist_add()) so
that the printing side doesn't require holding any locks, and works in
any context. Each stream has a maximum capacity of 4MB of text, and each
printed message is accounted against this limit.
Messages from a program are emitted using the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc,
which takes a stream_id argument in addition to working otherwise
similar to bpf_trace_vprintk.
The bprintf buffer helpers are extracted out to be reused for printing
the string into them before copying it into the stream, so that we can
(with the defined max limit) format a string and know its true length
before performing allocations of the stream element.
For consuming elements from a stream, we expose a bpf(2) syscall command
named BPF_PROG_STREAM_READ_BY_FD, which allows reading data from the
stream of a given prog_fd into a user space buffer. The main logic is
implemented in bpf_stream_read(). The log messages are queued in
bpf_stream::log by the bpf_stream_vprintk kfunc, and then pulled and
ordered correctly in the stream backlog.
For this purpose, we hold a lock around bpf_stream_backlog_peek(), as
llist_del_first() (if we maintained a second lockless list for the
backlog) wouldn't be safe from multiple threads anyway. Then, if we
fail to find something in the backlog log, we splice out everything from
the lockless log, and place it in the backlog log, and then return the
head of the backlog. Once the full length of the element is consumed, we
will pop it and free it.
The lockless list bpf_stream::log is a LIFO stack. Elements obtained
using a llist_del_all() operation are in LIFO order, thus would break
the chronological ordering if printed directly. Hence, this batch of
messages is first reversed. Then, it is stashed into a separate list in
the stream, i.e. the backlog_log. The head of this list is the actual
message that should always be returned to the caller. All of this is
done in bpf_stream_backlog_fill().
From the kernel side, the writing into the stream will be a bit more
involved than the typical printk. First, the kernel typically may print
a collection of messages into the stream, and parallel writers into the
stream may suffer from interleaving of messages. To ensure each group of
messages is visible atomically, we can lift the advantage of using a
lockless list for pushing in messages.
To enable this, we add a bpf_stream_stage() macro, and require kernel
users to use bpf_stream_printk statements for the passed expression to
write into the stream. Underneath the macro, we have a message staging
API, where a bpf_stream_stage object on the stack accumulates the
messages being printed into a local llist_head, and then a commit
operation splices the whole batch into the stream's lockless log list.
This is especially pertinent for rqspinlock deadlock messages printed to
program streams. After this change, we see each deadlock invocation as a
non-interleaving contiguous message without any confusion on the
reader's part, improving their user experience in debugging the fault.
While programs cannot benefit from this staged stream writing API, they
could just as well hold an rqspinlock around their print statements to
serialize messages, hence this is kept kernel-internal for now.
Overall, this infrastructure provides NMI-safe any context printing of
messages to two dedicated streams.
Later patches will add support for printing splats in case of BPF arena
page faults, rqspinlock deadlocks, and cond_break timeouts, and
integration of this facility into bpftool for dumping messages to user
space.

When the computer enters sleep status without a monitor
connected, the system switches the console to the virtual
terminal tty63(SUSPEND_CONSOLE).
If a monitor is subsequently connected before waking up,
the system skips the required VT restoration process
during wake-up, leaving the console on tty63 instead of
switching back to tty1.
To fix this issue, a global flag vt_switch_done is introduced
to record whether the system has successfully switched to
the suspend console via vt_move_to_console() during suspend.
If the switch was completed, vt_switch_done is set to 1.
Later during resume, this flag is checked to ensure that
the original console is restored properly by calling
vt_move_to_console(orig_fgconsole, 0).
This prevents scenarios where the resume logic skips console
restoration due to incorrect detection of the console state,
especially when a monitor is reconnected before waking up.

Merge tag 'ktime-get-clock-ts64-for-ptp' into timers/ptp
Pull the base implementation of ktime_get_clock_ts64() for PTP, which
contains a temporary CLOCK_AUX* workaround. That was created to allow
integration of depending changes into the networking tree. The workaround
is going to be removed in a subsequent change in the timekeeping tree.

PTP implements an inline switch case for taking timestamps from various
POSIX clock IDs, which already consumes quite some text space. Expanding it
for auxiliary clocks really becomes too big for inlining.
Provide a out of line version.
The function invalidates the timestamp in case the clock is invalid. The
invalidation allows to implement a validation check without the need to
propagate a return value through deep existing call chains.
Due to merge logistics this temporarily defines CLOCK_AUX[_LAST] if
undefined, so that the plain branch, which does not contain any of the core
timekeeper changes, can be pulled into the networking tree as prerequisite
for the PTP side changes. These temporary defines are removed after that
branch is merged into the tip::timers/ptp branch. That way the result in
-next or upstream in the next merge window has zero dependencies.
